JL Martindale writes stuff. Sometimes it’s stuff about bootleg theft, motherhood or peanut butter. Sometimes she isn’t sure what she’s writing about. She’s honored to have poetry published with Cadence Collective, Bank Heavy Press, Lucid Moose Press, A Poet is a Poet anthologies and more.

Daniel McGinn’s work has appeared numerous anthologies and publications including Bank Heavy, Lummox, Silver Birch Press, Lucid Moose Lit, the OC Weekly, Next Magazine, Freeze Ray, Spillway, Aim For the Head, Rip Rap, Amethyst Arsenic, Incandescent Mind, and others. His full length collection of poems, 1000 Black Umbrellas, was released by Write Bloody Press. He’s had five chapbooks published as part of the Laguna Poets chapbook series. Daniel has an MFA in writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts. Along with Mifanwy Kaiser, he teaches writing workshops at the Orange County Rescue Mission. He and his wife, Lori McGinn, are natives of Southern California. They have 3 children, 6 grandchildren and a very good dog.
