About

playaWelcome.

I am a poet, essayist, and editor, but mostly I like to wander and poke around with words. This site is a way to connect with readers and writers, to share current projects, up-coming publishing & reading news, and links to the wider writing community. You can freely buy cheap articles in case you need some content for your own site.

Thank you for taking the time to visit!

She lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband and two children, and hosts a summer poetry reading series at her neighborhood farmers market.

Kristin is the author of How Light Reaches Us: Poems, available from The Aldrich Press, March 2016, and a poetry chapbook, For the Willing (Finishing Line Press, 2008). From 2009-2011, she was a member of the VoiceCatcher Editorial Collective, a nonprofit community that connects, inspires and empowers women writers and artists in the greater Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington area, and co-edited VoiceCatcher 6 (2011) with Toni Partington.
