Hello fellow poetry marathoners! I am participating in the half-marathon, never having done anything like this before I’m nervous and excited, sort of like I was when I ran my first half-marathon.

I primarily write prose, I’m writing a book on my experiences dealing with chronic pain issues, a sort of memoir blended with the science of pain, and I have a blog of the same nature.

I have also been doing flash fiction for a while, which sometimes takes on a poetic rhythm. I have been reading much more poetry recently and would really like to work at and experience the craft.

I’m grateful to be here and look forward to reading all of your’s words, learning from and getting to know you all.
