C. Desirée Finley is a writer and artist now living in western Mass. Her poetry is published in Straw Dog Writers Pandemic Poetry, Silkworm Journal (print), Cape Cod Times & Willawaw Journal [Pushcart nomination] Meat For Tea and some local anthologies, and soon to be in The Brussels Review. Finley says, "I've lived on both coasts, in cities and ocean adjacent, but what has influenced my writing most of all is having a mountain in my backyard. In addition to poetry, I write quirky short stories and have experimented with hybrid forms. It all begins, as Ocean Vuong would say, with curiosity."
