Halliday has been writing since a young age in a number of formats and styles. You can find publications of her work listed and linked below.
Poetry
Performance Poetry
Halliday was very active in the local performance and SLAM poetry in the early 2000s. While some of the pieces written during that time period remain tagged in a folder for potential publication someday, many are likely to never appear in print. A couple recordings remain. You can watch them here.
Ragdoll’s Riot
First released in 2010, Ragdoll’s Riot marked Halliday’s first published collection. All of her prior works were individual releases and/or performance pieces.
Metaphors throughout play with the concept of rebuilding oneself after having been utterly destroyed. Follow the narrator through a poetic journey that will both wrench and warm your heart.
