We are thrilled to announce the acquisition of Miranda Dennis’ The Margaret, slated for publication in January. To introduce you to Miranda’s work, we’re sharing “What the Benedictine Nuns at Ft. Smith Gave Me,” which was originally published in Meridian

Sivvy author Lauren Davis will be presenting “The Aggressive Edit,” a poetry workshop that teaches you to cull your darlings. Offered through Tupelo Quarterly, the class will be held Feb. 8 at 1 - 3 p.m. EST via Zoom. Click on the link in our bio for more information.

Miranda Dennis’ micro-chapbook, The Margaret, centers on the difficulties of raising the unnerving Margaret of Anjou. A font-forward cover made sense to us for this collection, and begins with a Shakespearean epigraph (pictured). The Margaret will be available January 31.

Feeling subsumed? You’re not alone. Join Miranda Dennis in caring for the parts of you that may “[curse] at power, and save us.” The Margaret will bristle and hiss into being on January 31.  #newacquisition #mirandadavis #themargaret

On writing The Margaret, Miranda Dennis explains, “I’m my most authentic self as a poet when I mediate the weird with the real. [The Margaret] was the first time I remember feeling like I hit the right balance, and it’s an energy I seek more and more all these years later.”

On culling her own darlings, Miranda Dennis says, “The Margaret was a bit longer – not much, but a bit. But she said chop off whichever limb you want, I’ll just regrow it in someone else’s head.”  The Margaret is now available for $5, linked in our bio.
