I have just published my eighth collection of plays, and the first collection in seven years!  It's called The Island Collection and contains six of my most recent plays.

One of my favorite endorsements:

"I’ve been a “theatre person” for 26 years, and I have never enjoyed reading plays… until The Island Collection. This is a collection that I could not stop reading. Reading each work is a complete experience: visual, auditory, and emotional. I am still mulling over moments from the first one I read, days later. One simply does not see this caliber of female characters represented on stage or in commonly-studied scripts. Full of vulnerability, intelligence in all its forms, and indomitable strength, the women inhabiting these plays will walk away with your soul... A warning, though: do not pick up The Island Collection unless you are ready for your heart to be torn from your chest, poked, prodded, examined, then lovingly massaged and replaced, a whole new organ..."—Emily Stamets, coach for women+ in theatre and leaders in the arts.

My new poetry collection, God Shattered, is available from Jacar Press http://jacarpress.com/category/books/. 

Crows and mirrors, shadows and mothers. Moving seamlessly
between lyric and persona and always telling a piece of a larger
story, God Shattered offers poems that are home to many
familiars—family and community, landscape and weather, fairy
tales, daydreams, skepticism, silence and hope. In the journey of
this book, Kaufman discovers how personal disillusionment can
be a guide to finding the godly within ourselves. These poems lead
us to contemplate and understand our place in this fragile world.

Catherine Frid's play AfterWhys about hope and resilience for people whose lives have been impacted by suicide is touring with public performances in southern Ontario: Hanover on September 24th; Orangeville on September 25; Waterloo on September 27; Mount Forest on September 30.
