About Me

My photo
poetjanes
A 2007 reciepient of a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship in Literature, I'm the author of two books of poetry: Assignation at Vanishing Point (Elixir, 2003) and Shepherdess with an Automatic (WWPH, 2000). My essays have received the John Guyon Award, the Florida Review Editors' Prize, the Heekin Foundation's Cuchulain Fellowship, and the Gold Medal for the Essay in the 2007 Faulkner-Wisdom Competition. I'm nonfiction editor at Marginalia and review regularly for Antioch Review (poetry) and The Journal of the Association for Research on Mothering (nonfiction). At Loyola College, I teach nonfiction writing and poetry. This spring I'm working with a talented group of graduating seniors whose passion for reading and writing runs deep. This blog is our way of enlarging our conversations.
