Connie Wieneke has lived in Wyoming since 1983. All of her writing is fuelled by place and family, by the other-than-human which is really this whole earth, and by the ways in which memory sometimes gets it wrong. In August, Seven Kitchens Press published What Couldn’t Be Fixed, a chapbook of poems about her mother. Recent and forthcoming work appears in Stand, Weber: The Contemporary West, Pilgrimage, ballast, Camas, Talking River Review, and others, as well as in several anthologies, including Rewilding: Poems for the Environment. In addition to an MFA from the University of Montana, she has received literary fellowships from Wyoming Arts Council.
