Sheila-Na-Gig Spring

It is always such a joy to publish with Sheila-Na-Gig online!  This particular issue feels a bit like a family reunion with friends and fellow UAA/MFA colleagues also publishing work in these digital pages:  Vivian Faith Prescott, Raquel Vasquez-Gilliland and Lisa Stice.  Thank you to Editor Hayley Mitchell Haugen and Intern Assistant Editor Jessica Higgins for giving three of my poems a home in this issue:  “Oceanography,” “The Geography of Grief” and “You Choose Your Solitude.”  All can be read here.

Sheila-Na-Gig online publishes well-crafted free verse poetry. We especially seek poems with excellent imagery and a strong sense of voice.”  You can learn more about submission guidelines and upcoming deadlines here.
