Read: Bearning Fruit by Tyneisha Ternent
Tyneisha Ternent aka Ty the Poetess, is a Canadian writer and spoken word artist from the downtown area of Toronto. She currently resides in Barrie, Ontario with her husband Ryan and daughter Aurora. Ty has always used writing as a way to express herself. From a young age, she loved writing songs and poetry influenced by artists such as Beyoncé and Alicia Keys. Ty uses her creative talent to create a safe space for women, people dealing with mental health issues or just looking for motivation or encouragement. Having struggled herself, Ty does not fear sharing her story. Ty uses her platform to bring awareness to many issues and let people who are struggling know that they are not alone. Ty’s debut poetry collection called Bearing Fruit will be available in November 2020. This book is a journey of Ty’s first pregnancy experience. It captures her primary emotions like fear and follows her emotional roller coaster. Tyneisha is an amazing writer who is not afraid to talk about things that others won’t. Ty uses the struggles of her past as motivation to grow and to help others do the same.
