Her poetry, short fiction, and essays have appeared both in print and online in numerous literary journals and reviews over the course of a decade.

Steven Marty Grant

Steve is a poet living and working in New York City. A former journalist, musician and slacking underachiever, his poems have appeared in The Writer, Spring Harvest, The Ampersand (&) Review, VVC Drama & English Literary Journal, Vivid Online Journal, Drink This Cola, Urbanality and any web site with low enough standards to accept his work. His first volume of poetry Another Hotel Room is currently languishing, unsold, at Amazon.com. Steven graduated from a school you’ve never heard of and had so many majors that even he is confused as to what his degree is in. He is married to a wonderful, patient woman and has the most perfect daughter any man could ask for.
