Q: What are 5 things in your writing space right now?

A: An old horseshoe, my daughter’s violin, Haiku by Richard Wright, a new book of poems by Carrie Fountain, and the last of the light on Mother’s Day. -Dobby Gibson, a featured poet in Issue 46 of WSR

"Instead, we keep these echoes / of her hands, working firm and gentle into a kindness that still cares for us, / that still calls our names." -Carla Sofia Ferreira, from "Elegy with Azeite e Pão de Ló" in Issue 46 (plus we love her cat!)

"Some days all I can do is brush my teeth or walk the dogs or bartend for a shift at my friend's chocolate shop. It makes the writing days that much more adrenaline-filled and, like, dewy."
-Mamie Morgan about her writing practice in the last year.

Her poem "Everyone I've Danced with Is Dead" is in Issue 46 on our website. Thanks Mamie!
