Kids, today we're visiting a poet I have long been curious about, Ms. Shawnacy Kiker at Guts and Juice. Shawnacy describes herself as a "slightly reluctant member of the human race." She and her "mighty clan" reside in Southern California. I have long been drawn by her wonderful poetry, and wanted a peek into what I knew would be an interesting life story. Get ready to be entertained, kids. She does not disappoint!
Poets United: Shawnacy, you are a very talented girl. Did
you, like so many other gifted poets, write as a child? When did you first know
you are a writer?
