She writes poetry and creative nonfiction and has two careers, two sons, two laptops, two cell phones, two bachelor’s degrees, and two master’s degrees, including a MFA in poetry with an emphasis in verse craft from Western State Colorado University. Sadly, these multiple dualities have not brought balance to her life. |  Uche OgbujiUche Ogbuji was born in Calabar, Nigeria and has been a traveler ever since, living, among other places, in Egypt and England before settling in Colorado, the first place he has lived more than three years. A computer engineer and entrepreneur by trade, his chapbook, Ndewo, Colorado (Aldrich Press, 2013) is a Colorado Book Award Winner and a Westword 2015 Award Winner ("Best Environmental Poetry") . |  Jere PaulmenoJere Paulmeno is a Denver-based copywriter in the medical device industry.

His poems have appeared in Many Mountains Moving, Bringing Poetry to Life: New Voices, and (anciently) The Highland Echo. A student who has survived David J. Rothman’s erudition and learned much from him about how poetry works, Dale now reads and builds word contraptions with far more skill and pleasure than he did. |  Susan Delaney SpearSusan Spear teaches at Colorado Christian University, serves as Managing Editor of Think, and holds a MFA in poetry with an emphasis in versecraft from the Western State Colorado University. She lives in Elizabeth, Colorado, where she and her dog Lady Guinevere explore the dusty plains. |
