Through evocative metaphor and verse, Smolen challenges her readers to let these poems get under their skin, even if it hurts a little, for this is where healing begins. "In this intricate dance with words, Rebecca leaves us wrapped in possibilities of what love looks like in self and the love tango with others." -Nastashia Minto, Poet/Author of Naked "Rebecca Smolen's Excoriation is part declaration and part dream of a travel in the honesties of existence." -John Miller, founder of Portland Ars Poetica "In rich language and provocative shapes, her poems are generous acts, each a form of healing, to fall first,/ to shine... to know how to rain, their purpose to ease another's pain. Read these brave poems to understand that the world is merely attempting to find its own way back through the mystery and science of this writer's voice. -Kate Gray, author of Carry the Sky
Autorenporträt
Rebecca Smolen is a writer based in Portland, Oregon transplanted from New Hampshire in 2014, and is a mom of two adorable little gingers. She grew up on a dead-end road exploring drainage pipes and pond life. She has a strong feminist voice that sometimes gets trapped within society's confines, but vows to teach her son and daughter that there are no confines. Smolen has a degree in creative writing and philosophy and works as veterinary technician. She is trained and certified in the Gateless Method and leads writing workshops employing this method, which was scientifically created to avoid provoking the fight or flight reaction generating a safe place to produce raw, new writing that will spotlight the strongest aspects of that material. Her first chapbook, Womanhood and Other Scars was published by The Poetry Box in 2018. Her poetry and essays can be found most recently in Allegory Ridge, Feminine Collective, Tiny Seed, The Inflectionist Review, Unchaste Anthologies, Hip Mama, Mutha Magazine, VoiceCatcher: a journal of women's voices & visions, The Poeming Pigeon: Cosmos, and the anti-fascist anthology, Shout.
