You don’t wake up in the afterlife. You get processed.

After a school shooting, sixteen-year-old Remy Moreau is uploaded into Afterdeath—a digital hereafter that’s orderly, optimized, and eager to flatten her rough edges. The system expects her to pick a realm, follow the prompts, and reach closure on a schedule. Remy isn’t ready.

Instead she scavenges meaning in places the algorithms can’t quite control: half-remembered campfires, endless aisles in an impossible department store, fleeting connections with others who refuse to fit the mold. She builds her own unfinished spaces—not to hack the code, but to stay human: messy, uncertain, and real.

Congratulations to Frank Johnson for winning with "The dogs of war". Thank you for sharing your creativity with the Neopoet community!

Born of Boreal Bones is a northern poetry anthology about the places that shape us, the seasons that mark us, and the memories that refuse to leave.

Moving through Summer, Fall, Winter, Second Winter, and Spring, this curated collection brings together established poets, emerging writers, and first-time voices in a shared portrait of northern life: lakes and blackflies, bus rides and old camps, frozen roads and family tables, grief, humour, endurance, and renewal.

This is the North not as scenery, but as something lived. Raw, lyrical, funny, aching, and deeply human, Born of Boreal Bones is a collection for anyone who has ever belonged to a place that was beautiful, difficult, and impossible to forget.
