If you love Cape Cod, you'll love Moon Tide.

The salty air, the landscape, and the life within. Moon Tide takes you to Cape Cod, to weathered gray houses and frogs in the marsh, and the constant presence of the sea like its own person.

Shaking the Persimmon Tree, which contains several prize-winning poems, promises to take you drinking sambuca with Vincent Van Gogh, fly fishing on the Ganges, and rolling naked in the elephant grass. In his new collection Marc Woodward writes of time spent in Italy, India and elsewhere, as well as drawing from the rural environment of his home in Devon, England. These are beautifully crafted, melodic poems which lightly carry their intrinsic darkness. Whilst there are poems about cancer, Covid and loss, these are balanced by poems about love and nature, and often the author's sense of humour shines through, even if at times it's just a glimmer through the back door of a morgue!

The poems in Small Craft immerse themselves in the glittering, turbulent waters of Cape Cod to see what can be salvaged and salvage what can be seen. Using sound-rich diction, Janet Edmonds describes the lowliest razor clam and the brightest constellations in the night sky combining presence and absence, light and dark, the knowable and the mysterious nature of things. She combines presence and absence, light and dark, the knowable and the mysterious nature of things. -Jennifer Barber author of The Sliding Boat Our Bodies Made, founding editor of Salamander Magazine

In These Hollowed Bones, birds are the conduit for conversations of internal emotions and the natural world. This collection ties together the themes of loss, marriage, and ecology, topics that are at once personal and universal. The voices contained within these poems speak of the isolation felt by both avian and human due to migration and loss of habitat, loss of home. Nature and bird lovers will find solace and self-recognition within these pages.
