Writing

Poetry & Storytelling

Ella’s writing is a flame — fierce, ancient, and healing. Her work invites readers to remember fire, body, Country, and the cycles of regeneration. Her poetry centres Indigenous wisdom, feminine spirit, and the collective journey of returning.

Only Species That Can Make Fire

Coming soon — Ella’s new poetry collection exploring fire, ceremony, and cultural knowledge as a pathway to healing and futurity.

Sample Poem

We are the only species
that can call fire to walk beside us
feed it bark, breath, and story
and watch the old grow new.
