Poet
and publisher Jill Stengel founded
a+bend press in 1999 as the print component of her poetry reading and
publication series held in San Francisco’s historically-rich North Beach,
producing a chapbook for each reader. Later she added a journal, mem,
featuring writing by poet-mothers raising young children.
Dear Jack, Jill’s first full-length collection,
will be available this Spring from Black Radish Books. Nearly a dozen of her
chapbooks have been published, some of which can
be viewed online at dusie.org and other sites. Her writing has also appeared in
print and online journals and anthologies, including Boog City, Kindergarde, Otoliths, Try, and Touched by Adoption.
She has taught poetry and book arts,
participates in poetry collectives, and is active in the Poet-Moms listserv community.
Jill currently lives in Davis, CA with her family of one
husband, three children, and an oft-changing number of non-human animals.
