Another book\, Oz\, is forthcoming in 2011. Her awards include a Whiting Writers Award\, two National Endowment for the Arts fellowships\, and a Nation "\;Discovery"\; award\, and a Pushcart Prize. She has been a resident of the MacDowell Colony and has served as a guest editor of Passages North and Hunger Mountain. She teaches creative writing in the M.F.A. and Ph.D. programs at Western Michigan University and at the Vermont College of Fine Arts. A Grammar to Waking explores what Virginia Woolf called "\;moments of being."\; Eimers’ meticulously crafted poems question how we live. "\;There are so many rules we don't even know\,"\; she writes\, "\;but we wake to them anyway."\;
Shawn Fawson spent her childhood in Italy\, Switzerland and Japan\, and now works as a resident chaplain at St. Mark’s hospital. She has published two chapbooks and one full length collection\, Giving Way\, (2010). Her honors include the Francis Locke Poetry Prize and a notable in Best American Essays 2008. Poet Betsy Sholl writes that Giving Way “seems composed on that abrupt edge where the living and the dying meet\, where absence and presence\, intimacy and distance seems to share the same source…. These poems present ‘lessons in seeing gradually’—the only way to fully perceive a world that is richly layered\, elusive\, and not easily converted into words. But Fawson does just that\, giving us a vocabulary for all that is luminal and luminous\, a language of transformation.”
