Liz Abrams-Morley is the author of the forthcoming Because Time, as well as of Beholder, Inventory, and Necessary Turns, which won an Eric Hoffer Award for Excellence in Small Press Publishing. In 2020 she was named the Passager Poet of the year in Passager Journal’s annual contest. Liz’s poems and short stories have been published in a variety of nationally distributed anthologies, journals and ezines, and have been read on NPR. A semi-retired faculty member in the Rosemont College MFA program, she is co-founder of Around the Block Writers’ Collaborative. A poet, professor, gramma and activist, Liz wades knee deep in the flow of everyday life from which she draws inspiration and, occasionally, exasperation.
Amy Small-McKinney, Montgomery County Poet Laureate Emeritus, is the author of the forthcoming book of poems, & You Think It Ends, as well as, Walking Toward Cranes, winner of the 2016 Kithara Book Prize, and One Day I Am A Field, written during COVID and her husband’s illness and death. For the 2020 virtual AWP, she co-moderated an interactive discussion, Writing Through Grief & Loss: The Intersection of Social and Personal Grief During COVID. Her poems have appeared in numerous journals, including American Poetry Review, Banyan Review, Comstock Review, One Art, Pedestal Magazine, Persimmon Tree, Philadelphia Stories, SWWIM, Tiferet, Verse Daily, and Vox Populi, among others, and have been translated into Korean and Romanian.
