Sheila-Na-Gig, Winter 2016, Vol. 1.2

Editor and poet Hayley Mitchell Haugen (What the Grimm Girl Looks Forward To, Finishing Line Press, 2016) co-founded the print version of Sheila-Na-Gig in 200o with Kristine Sanders.  This venture published 14 volumes of the journal along with three chapbooks, featuring over 400 poets and awarding $2000 in contest prizes.

Sheila-Na-Gig re-opened as an online journal and publication venue in the fall of 2016.  I am grateful to have published work in both the fall and now winter issues of Sheila-Na-Gig.  Follow the link and you’ll find my poems “Le Creuset,” “Wooden Boardwalk,” “Moon” & “At the Southern Entrance of Lynn Canal.”  I am over the moon to learn that “Le Creuset” was listed as the Winter 2016 Poetry Contest Winner.

Thank you to editor and poet Hayley Mitchell Haugen for sharing my work with a wider audience of readers!
