Introducing Katrina

katrinaWe’re happy to welcome Katrina Vandenberg as this week’s guest editor at Unstressed. Katrina’s first collection Atlas was a finalist for the Minnesota Book Award. A new chapbook, On Marriage, was published last year by Red Dragonfly Press. She’s received residencies from the Sewanee Writer’s Conference, the Amy Clampitt House, and the MacDowell Colony, and her work has appeared in journals such as The American Scholar, The Iowa Review, and Post Road.

For an online sampler of her poetry, we recommend Fuchsia, One Argument for the Existence of God, and First Lesson: The Anatomist Explains the Primacy of Imagination. Oh, and you might as well read an essay, too: Putting Your Poetry in Order: The Mix-Tape Strategy.

Admiration for Katrina’s poetry was one of the common tastes that drew we Linebreakers together when we started planning our little project more than a year ago. We’re thrilled to be sharing a screen with her.
