Brooklyn Copeland Poetry
Brooklyn Copeland's parents made sure she loved books and reading. So it's no surprise that she grew up to become -- among other things -- a writer. In 2010 she received a Ruth Lilly Poetry Fellowship from the Poetry Foundation. Her first full-length poetry collection, Siphon, Harbor, was recently published, and Sharon Gamble invited her in to talk about writing. Brooklyn's first full-length poetry collection, Siphon, Harbor, is published by Shearsman. You can learn lots more about Brooklyn at brooklyncopeland.blogspot.com. |
