I am beyond thrilled to have a poem in latest issue of NELLE alongside some incredible women writers like Francesca Bell, Lynne Thompson, Alison Pelegrin, Lisa Beech Hartz, Lauren Camp, Sandra Meek and so many more. I have so much admiration for Lauren Goodwin Slaughter for all her hard work to make Nelle such a powerful magazine. Thank you, Lauren, for believing in my poem.
This poem, "Four for a Boy" means so much to me, because it deals with one of the biggest heartbreaks a woman can go through. It feels extra special to me that it lives in a mag that publishes all women.
I have found a generous, anonymous donor who is willing to match the cost of buying a $10 subscription to NELLE and I will donate the tally from this post to the CMV foundation in memory of my sister, Emma's son, Shane.
In one click, you can support women writers, as well as a cause that is very dear to my heart. Please just Notify me that you subscribed so I can make an eventual total of the donation. I will be matching subscriptions with donations until the end of May 2020.
