| Lauren Tivey has given up the rat race to travel the world teaching English as a second language, and she is currently terrorizing the small city of Jiangyin, China. She holds a MFA in Poetry from Vermont College of Fine Arts, and her work has appeared in Red River Review, Snakeskin, The Sierra Nevada College Review, Medicinal Purposes, and a bunch of others. She has been a forklift operator, museum attendant, pizza delivery driver, real estate agent, landscaper, and paralegal, among other things. She gets a kick out of exploring old Buddhist temples, graveyards, obscure literary sites, and other such places that cause her friends and family to label her as "a little weird." Though she thinks she is kick-ass, she still misses her kitty cat in the U.S. |
