Eating mushrooms, cooking them, and hunting them are on my mind all the time in Iowa. This will be the second year that my friend, Barbara, and I have organized this little wing-ding. I'm so happy to see it in the DMR! Thanks, Jennifer Miller, for covering it with such sass!

Bennett, Mel Bentley, Charles Carr, Grant Clauser, Poet Jim Cory, Valerie Fox, Leonard Gontarek, Jennifer L. Knox,Lynn Levin, Don Riggs, Amy Saul-Zerby, Laura Spagnoli, Nicole Steinberg, and more!
I'm thrilled to be included in this amazing new textbook edited by Kathleen Volk Miller and Marion Wren. Stella (in chair) is pretty excited too. So many smart, funny writers including my homeboy, Jason Schneiderman.
Thanks for this, Shanna Compton!
I'm starting off 2015 with a new website! Whattaya think? So you don't get lost, I'm reposting one of my favorite websites. It's an amazing work of art and poetry. I'm so glad this team keeps it alive online. Enjoy!
