Laurie Haener (he/him) is a country boy. He can be found watching the colors in the sky, buttering a bread heel, or lacing up his boots. His work is convergence; truth and its beauty, memory and its image. Laurie's practice seeks dimensional gratitude through quiet opacity. This is his first book. More at laurencehaener.com
Sarah Pincock (they/them) is a hobbit / hermit / hedge. They create fabulist comic renderings of mythic iconography, archetypes and folktales. They can be found dungeon crawling, hoarding flower seeds or eating cheese. This is the only book they've ever read.

Monica Daggett (she/her) is a recently disabled queer wordsmith from Boise. A scientist by education and at heart, her curiosity and attention to detail and pattern inform her work. Aside from her own healthcare management, you can find her tending to the houseplants and garden, arranging flowers for loved ones, or reading as many books as she can get her hands on.
Mair Allen is a writer living in Minneapolis, MN. Their work can be found in various places on the internet—on this list they are honored to include both OROBORO Volume 4 and the second place choice for the 2021 Penrose Poetry Prize. They are a member of the NOYO Review editorial circle, an MFA candidate at Antioch University, and a publishing intern with Coffee House Press for the Spring '22 season.
Taylor Roseweeds is a writer, artist, and recovering rabblerouser, a weed in the sidewalk that just won't die. Her years of social practice as an activist-journalist inform her poetic work and vice versa. In 2021, she completed a book-length manuscript, Fragile State, which examines personal and collective experiences of illness, madness, survival and care during strange times of slow civil war and climate collapse. She's written two chapbooks of poetry, The Last and The Lasting (on extinction grief), and Daughter of Something (in collaboration with June T. Sanders). Lately, she's trying to create domestic rituals, to learn to grow food and ride a motorcycle, and to just sit and do nothing sometimes.
Catherine Wright is currently an undergraduate student at Truman State University, where she spends most of her time complaining about the cold weather and searching for a pen with strawberries on it which she misplaced in 2014. Her poetry has been published in Maudlin House, Quartz Literary, and Touchstone Literary Magazine.
Apollo "A.J." Beaber is an undergraduate student living in Portland, Oregon. He considers himself something of a transcendental transgender space cowboy hailing from a far flung solar system – or, if that's too much of a mouthful, he'll accept the title of "poet" instead. Beaber’s work has been published in OROBORO Volume 6, Gargoyle Magazine, and Calling Upon Calliope literary & art magazine.
