Quick (a collection of poems)

Just finished my final chapbook of poems, entitled "Quick," created for the Creative Writing Concentration in the Barnard College English major, with the advice of Professor Saskia Hamilton. It consists of 23 poems divided into three sections, "The Bit of Her," "The Middle," and "But First:". One of the poems, "Just Outside of Buenos Aires and a Dream," was a finalist in the Hollins University Literary Festival Contest this past Spring. A selection of these same poems won Barnard's Helene Searcy Poetry Prize and 2nd place in the Lenore Marshall Barnard Prize for Poetry this year. I will be continuing to submit poems from the chapbook (as well as the chapbook entire) to literary magazines and contests, and developing it into a larger, book-length collection.

Please just ask if you'd like to take a look!
