Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
am a published poet and author with one published poetry book out. My poetry has also been published in one magazine (Section 8 Magazine) and an anthology. I also write fiction and I’m finished with my first science fiction, post-apocalypic novella, “The Last Refuge”. It will be March 2016. I am also working on a second poetry book, this one with an artist friend who is contributing his artwork. It is titled, “One Artist, One Poet”, and will be out Late November 2015. Other than all of that, I am currently a student at the University of Oregon, pursuing my Bachelor’s of Arts in English Literature. I am a straight A student with a 3.75 GPA. I plan on geting my Master’s degree in English Literature or Fine Arts- Literature as well. I plan on becoming a college/university English teacher after I’m done with college. As far as reading poetry goes, I am pretty picky. I enjoy the works of Edgar Allan Poe, Sylvia Plath, Robert Frost, Virginia Woolf, and W.B. Yeats. As far as fiction goes, my three favorite authors are Laurel K. Hamilton, Anne Rice, and J.K. Rowling. I don’t read mucch non-fiction, but I enjoy reading about history, politics, and sociology.
