Hi!
My name is Jacqueline
I am a 9-to-5 medical transcriber/a.k.a. P.I.T. (poet-in-transit)
and the shyest poet you will ever meet
I have been writing poetry since the early 90's
in both English and Spanish
and have been published in various venues
(see Publications)
My work consists of short, quirky, clever 'GOTCHA!' poems
I am also the US distributor of TURBULENCE
a magazine out of the UK
clink on above link for more info (submission/subscription)
I read my pieces at OPEN MICs whenever opportunity arises
Come hear me
Read me
Buy my book
I hope you like my work
=======================
My native country:
I adore Ecuador!
It's the land of my birth;
the most beautiful country
on the face of the earth.
If it weren't for flying
and my silly girl fear,
I would get on an airplane
and visit it every year.
