My science fiction poem (a cinquain - yeah, yeah, me and form poetry, I know) Emigrant has just sold to Sybil's Garage and will be available in their next issue.
I had a devil of a time titling this one ... I kept wanting to call it "Hiraeth" (which is a Welsh word not easily translatable, but equivalent to longing / homesickness), but there's nothing specifically Celtic about the poem, so I didn't find it appropriate. Not to mention the necessity of having a footnote on the poem. ;-)
About Me
- Lindsey Duncan
- I'm a professional harp performer, chef / pastry chef, and speculative fiction writer from Cincinnati, Ohio. My contemporary fantasy novel Flow is available from Double Dragon Publishing, and my science fiction novel Scylla and Charybdis is now out from Grimbold Books. I've also sold a number of short stories and a few pieces of speculative poetry. I write predominantly fantasy, usually epic and/or humorous, with some soft science fiction. I play the traditional lever harp with a specialty in Celtic music - but I also perform modern and Renaissance tunes. And yes, you read that right - I have a diploma in Baking and Pastry and an Associates in Culinary Arts and am currently working in the catering field at Kate's Catering and Personal Chef Services (Dayton, KY). I am a CPC (Certified Pastry Culinarian) and CSW (Certified Specialist of Wine).
