Christine Gelineau's essays, poems, and reviews have appeared widely. Her latest book, Appetite for the Devine will be published by Ashland Poetry Press in April, 2010. Gelineau is the Associate Director of the Creative Writing Program at Binghamton University and she also teaches in the low-residency MA/MFA at Wilkes University.
Emily Van Kley was raised in Upper Michigan, but now makes her home in Olympia, Washington, where she works at a collective food coop, gardens the vacant lot next to her apartment, writes, and gripes about the rain. She holds an MFA from the Inland Northwest Center for Writers in Spokane and this year her poems have received honorable mention for the Joy Harjo and Oberon poetry prizes. Her fiction has appeared in The Republic of Letters and Faultline.
