Poet and artist Mary-Kim Arnold was born in Korea, raised in New York, and now lives in Pawtucket. I thought Beth Ayer lived in Rhode Island but she actually seems to live in Easthampton, Massachusetts. Kelin Loe also lives in western Massachusetts, where (among many, many other things) she co-edits Spoke Too Soon, a journal of poems too long to be published traditionally. Her co-editor Leora Fridman lives in the Bay Area, and those two are on a big coast-to-coast tour. I’m terrible at talking about poetry which is why I thought I would list where everyone lives. I hope that’s okay. Side note: congrats to Ada Books owner Brent Legault! He’s finally sole owner of the building.
