Hi folks!
I procrastinated doing this a bit, but hello! My name is Alex Aimee Kist and I am currently writing from Salem, MA. I am the Managing Editor of Ginger Bug Press and the Development Committee Leader of the Boston Poetry Slam. I am also the founder of Northshore Writers, a group of folks on the MA Northshore that get together once a month to join a creative space, write, and receive feedback. You can find my work in Beyond Queer Words, The Closed Eye Open, Quartz Literary, and the 2021 Poetry Marathon Anthology.
This is my second official poetry marathon and I am so excited to go on this journey with you all. I have found that this exercise really helps me stretch my craft. I can’t wait to get all these poems polished up, but for now let’s get a little chaotic together.
xo Alex
“let’s get a little chaotic together” my god if that could be the slogan for next years marathon – well, then we’ve really hit the nail on the head, haven’t we? Congrats on the marathon and I can’t wait to read the rest of your poems.
