About the poets

Jane Alynn is a poet, writer and fine art photographer. She is the author of "Necessity of Flight" (Cherry Grove, 2011) and a chapbook, "Threads & Dust" (Finishing Line Press, 2005). In addition to taking second in New South's 2012 Poetry Contest, she received a William Stafford Award from Washington Poets Association in 2004. Her poems have appeared in numerous journals as well as in many anthologies. Recently, her poems, written in collaboration with visual artists, have been exhibited in galleries. Her photographic art explores the synergy between the two arts.

Mary Eliza Crane grew up in the Northeast and fell madly, passionately and desirously in love with the natural world in the Adirondack Mountains. A transplant to the Cascade foothills of the Pacific Northwest, she is a regular feature at poetry venues in the Puget Sound region, and has read her poetry from Woodstock to Los Angeles. Mary has two volumes of poetry, "What I Can Hold In My Hands" and "At First Light", published by Gazoobi Tales. Her work also has appeared in Quill and Parchment, The Cartier Street Review, the Far Field and Cradle Songs: An Anthology of Poems on Motherhood from Quill and Parchment Press.

Joannie Stangeland's third book of poems, "Into the Rumored Spring", was published by Ravenna Press, and she's donating author proceeds to Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. She's also written two poetry chapbooks: "A Steady Longing for Flight", which won the Floating Bridge Press Chapbook Award, and "Weathered Steps". Joannie's poems have appeared in Crab Creek Review, Floating Bridge Review, Valparaiso Poetry Review, Fire On Her Tongue and other publications and anthologies, as well as on the bus. Joannie's taught writing at Richard Hugo House and LiTFUSE, and she helps edit the online journals The Smoking Poet and Cascadia Review.

Laura L. Snyder keeps a slanted profile so weighted words pour out in South Seattle's rainy winters. She's a grandmother, gardener, self-taught naturalist, botanical illustrator, basket weaver and spinner of natural fibers born in Tacoma. In the last six months she's been published in Windfall, Baseball Bard, Switched on Gutenberg, Faultlines, and the anthologies: American Society: What Poets See, Hot Summer Nights, Cradle Songs: An Anthology of Poems on Motherhood, From Glory to Glory: Anthology by Poetry in the Cathedral, Manifest West: Eccentricities of Geography, and in two chapbooks: "Winged from Flutter Press" and "Witness", winner of the 2012 Willet Press contest. You are likely to find her with an open journal in art museums or wherever trees and bears hang out.

Tanya McDonald is a published poet and as-yet-unpublished fiction writer who resides in Woodinville with her husband and their cat. Once upon a time, she sugared jelly doughnuts, sang lullabies to chickens, and stayed up all night DJing on a college radio station. At present, she prefers tea to coffee, acts younger than she is, and when not scribbling poems, is hard at work on the second draft of her YA urban fantasy novel.

James Rodgers has lived in Pacific since 1997. He is a member of Striped Water Poets in Auburn, and has read poems throughout the state. He has been published in multiple magazines and chapbooks, including: HA!, WPA collections, Prism, and many more. He has won first prize twice, along with two third prizes, and multiple honorable mentions in the Charles Proctor category for the Washington Poets Association's poetry contests. James also has a blog called "Haikooky" that is a daily shot of humorous haiku. It can be found at: jamesrodgershaikooky.blogspot.com.
