Thanks to OAF

[Julie A. Dickson]

I'd like to thank OAF for providing a forum where fellow poets and writers can connect, read each other's work, make constructive comments and encourage one another!
Thanks to the editors of OAF for recognizing the fine work here.

I am first and foremost a poet and have been writing for over 50 years, have several collections, books and YA/Children's books in print, have been on two poetry boards, coordinated 100 Thousand Poets for Change for 5 yrs, have been a guest editor on several journals, led and coordinated poetry workshops, worked with Jr. High kids on writing and with seniors on memory poems.

I am fortunate to have had over 100 poems published in various journals in 2022, including Misfit, Open Door, Blue Heron Review, Five Willows, New Verse News, Ekphrastic Review, Girl God, Last Leaves, Life and Legend, MasticadoresUSA, Bear Creek Haiku, Lothlorien, Five Fleas, Medusa's Kitchen, Dead Beat Poets, Uppagus, Page & Spine, Poetry Quarterly, Silver Birch Press, Good Fat Poetry, Tiger Moth Review, Pensive Review and Vigil for Elephants.


Happy 2023 and I wish everyone here at OAF a wonderful year!

Julie
