As a writer, Donato Mancini moves between genres, making visual and procedural poetry, bookworks, and visual art. He is author of over five books with titles such as Buffet World, Same Diff, Ligatures, and Hell Passport No. 22, and he has published an analysis of poetry book reviewing practices in Canada, You Must Work Harder to Write Poetry of Excellence. Mancini graduated with a PhD from UBC, his dissertation on writing beyond canonical genres, and will be a SSHRCC-funded post-doctorate at Johns Hopkins University starting in January 2018.
