Hi, I'm Maria

I'm a poet and creative soul. I've shared over 200 poems with the world, many in literary journals like ONLY POEMS, Contemporary Verse 2, Queen's Quarterly, and elsewhere. Over the last three years, I've fostered and developed a robust readership online and in my community,

I host the popular writing community, Gather, for other creatives dedicated to improving their craft and searching for creative community.
