An interview with Kristy Bowen, #BLauthor1, by Stacia M. Fleegal

Got Bowen books?

Our spotlight is on poet and editor Kristy Bowen for another week, so I thought it would be nice to interview Kristy about her writing and publishing projects:

SMF: I saw a picture on your Facebook profile recently of a list of your books, to which you'd added your most recent publication. Can you share that picture with us, and also give us a list of your books and the presses that published them?

KB: Sure! I also have a number of limited edition chaps & book arts things, but these are the full-lengths in the picture. I usually try to corral smaller manuscripts into larger projects, so most of my work eventually winds up longer book form eventually.
