Dialect Of Dahlias (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780985471507)

Originally from the woodsy warmth of a small town in the northern panhandle of West Virginia where she began writing creatively as a wee one in kindergarten, Gloria J. Wimberley, M.A., now lives with her husband and two children in South Florida where the eyeshine of gators is scant, but the sky-blue "plumage" of plumbago is plentiful. As an Edgar Allan Poet scribe, Gloria also has had work published in The Northern Virginia Review, Mothering Magazine (under the pseudonym Mirandah Thorn), Moondance Magazine, Muse Cafe Quarterly, Tapestry, Clockwise Cat, The Southern Ocean Review, and various other print and online publications in the U.S. and abroad. Wimberley has work included or forthcoming in the following anthologies: In the Company of Women: An Anthology of Wit & Wisdom, Sass & Class, Mapping Me: A Landscape of Women's Stories, Return to Rural America: A West Virginia Anthology, and The Panty Drawer. When not penning poetry, she teaches at Broward College in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Dialect of Dahlias is her debut collection of poetry.
