Month: February 2018

Thank you to Editor Sam Rose for including a book review of Something Yet to Be Named  in the newest issue of Peeking Cat Poetry Magazine.  

Sam writes, “There is a real sense of place in Something Yet to Be Named, the first poetry collection by Kersten Christianson.  That place is Alaska, and it is beautifully described — from the open sea, to the vast sky, to the mountainous landscape, to the summer and the berries it births.  Sun or no sun, Alaska is clearly beautiful, and a much-loved home for this writer.”

Included in her generous review are snippets from “Elegy” and “Talisman.”

Thank you, Sam, for including this in the latest issue.  You can take a peek at Issue 34/February 2018 here, or make purchase of the journal here.

Word Life is curated by Editor Elizabeth Gibson.  February’s theme explores love, and includes two of my poems “Latitude” and “Heart Line.”  Be sure to take some time to explore the sweet sampling of work found there.

 

Matt Potter is the founding editor of Pure Slush.  His goal is to print “flash…without the wank.”  Each publication contains a wide variety of flash fiction, non-fiction and poetry.  Am over the moon to be included in not one, but two printings of Pure Slush:  “Tall…ish” (Vol. 11, 2016) and Happy²  (Vol. 15, 2018), the more recent of the two can be ordered here.  Thank you, Matt, for including some of my work in the pages of Pure Slush.
