Advance praise for There Will Always Be Light Meditative, familiar, evocative. In the tradition of Mary Oliver, Arlene Neal writes about what we all know and need to remember, valuing small things, memories, the every day, family and baseball, flowers and birds, daydreams, passing gas, condiments, Cool Whip and figs, loss, sorrow, regret, and the importance of remembering, writing with awful fear someday we might forget, shedding light on all that matters, and like the violets of her first poem, hushing the violence with steady calm. -Scott Owens, Author of All In, Prepositional, and Worlds…mehr

Advance praise for There Will Always Be Light Meditative, familiar, evocative. In the tradition of Mary Oliver, Arlene Neal writes about what we all know and need to remember, valuing small things, memories, the every day, family and baseball, flowers and birds, daydreams, passing gas, condiments, Cool Whip and figs, loss, sorrow, regret, and the importance of remembering, writing with awful fear someday we might forget, shedding light on all that matters, and like the violets of her first poem, hushing the violence with steady calm. -Scott Owens, Author of All In, Prepositional, and Worlds Enough Arlene Neal's poetry, as does her person, makes me think of words like humble, honest, and wise. When she first began, reluctantly, showing me her work, I saw poems that had been crafted to their end point, ones from which I learned not just about her world, but my own, ones that made me feel something all the way into my bones. By the time I had seen enough of her work to gauge the consistent quality, I was convinced that Neal is a poet of the finest rank, who shares the richness of a rural and deeply American experience. -Tim Peeler, Author of First Season, The Birdhouse, and Henry River -Molly Rice, Author of Forever Eighty-Eights and Mill Hill About the Author Arlene Neal grew up in northern Stokes County, NC, in the tobacco farming community of Lawsonville on the NC/VA state line situated on a ridge between the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia to the north and the Sauratown Mountains to the south. Red clay soil, woods, fields, creeks, and the Dan River are in her DNA. Labeled Renaissance Woman by former students, Arlene Neal holds a bachelor's degree in biology and a master's in English Education from Appalachian State University. In retirement from Catawba Valley Community College English Department, she pursues poetry and continues to write a weekly column for the News-Topic of Lenoir, NC. She enjoys her large family, backyard bonfires, Sunday dinners, gardening, canning, birdwatching, reading, hiking, the Atlanta Braves, book clubs, and painting every now and then. She lives in the Dudley Shoals community of Caldwell County with her fisherman-husband Terry Neal who shares her faith journey.
