She hears the heels of the dripping ghosts that ride the rough roof-beam

I have never been good at writing bios. My very earliest ones were dreadful. I don't think I stopped using the line about addiction to folklore and dead languages until 2010. Eventually I weeded out the awkward bits; I found a formula that worked and I stuck with it. Aqueduct Press did not want a formulaic bio from me. On being asked to provide a "chatty bio," I froze and wrote absolutely nothing usable until four in the morning a few nights ago, at the end of a lengthy e-mail chain, when my brain decided it was too tired to care.

Sonya Taaffe never knows what to say about herself when asked for a bio.

Additionally, Ghost Signs is now listed under Forthcoming Publications.

This is good writing news.

Now this is the good kind of writing news, indeed! As I've said before, I immensely look forward to buying and reading Ghost Signs. Collected Sonya poetry! More, yes!

And I am very flattered and glad to see my anthology listed there.
