No Fear of Love and Monsters
I'm including my work on Every Writer for the first time in really 20 years. Other than articles I have written, I really have never published my own work on this site. I struggled with this. Every Writer has been helping writers and publishers connect for the last 25 years. I always avoided putting my creative work on this site, but the nature of the internet and publishing has changed so much, I think now might be a good time to use my voice here in a new way.
These poems are about 10 years in the making. They are a long journey of pain and discovery. I'm still writing. I'm still trying to figure things out, but this is where I am, and this is my work. I hope you enjoy these poems. They will appear someday soon in a collection titled, No Fear of Love and Monsters.
