Originally trained as a dancer Yvette was inspired to choreograph dances based on poetry and art, over time she found her passion for writing exceeded her passion for dancing.

Yvette has been writing poetry for over fifteen years and her work has been published in several Australian magazines as well as many U.S. and U.K magazines and journals such as The Word is Out, Pixel Papers, Pulsar Poetry Magazine, Red Booth Review, Falling Star Magazine, Ancient Heart, Ken*again, Moonwort Review, Tryst, Thick with Conviction, Baby Clam press. Yvette has had a collection of poetry published with Sun Rising Poetry Press in the Hurricane Katrina Anthology ‘Washing the Color of Water Golden’.

Her first published book of poetry Faces In The Storm will see release through Ginninderra Press on the 16th of December, 2008.

In recent years Yvette has collaborated as writer for several contemporary art works, one of which, “The Little Optimum”, exhibited as part of the 2006 Perth International Arts Festival.

Yvette is in the process of writing a novel which is due for completion in the latter part of 2009.
