Congratulations to our Poetry Mentor, Michelle Bonczek Evory, who won a 2021 Independent Publishers Book Award for her collection The Ghost of Lost Animals. The book was published last year by Gunpowder Press when it won the Barry Spacks Poetry Prize.  

Michelle is available for one-on-one mentoring sessions and manuscript reviews of poetry, nonfiction, & fiction. The Poet’s Billow provides one-on-one study with published, working writers and professors who will cater lessons, assignments, and readings to you individually. Mentoring integrates today’s technology with traditional immersions in reading, writing, and discussion to allow students and mentors to develop close relationships and conduct deep discussions about the art of poetry and the act of writing it. Specific foci and scheduling are designed to fit your schedule and needs and can range from one-time meetings to extended, regular interactions.
