In Fine Form: A Contemporary Look at Form Poetry (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781987915235)

Sandy Shreve has written, edited and/or co-edited seven books and two chapbooks. Her most recent poetry collection is Waiting for Albatross (Oolichan Books, 2015). Shreve's contributions to the literary arts include founding BC's Poetry in Transit program, as well as serving on a variety of committees and juries. Her poetry is widely anthologized and has won or been shortlisted for several awards. Now retired, she worked in communications for fifteen years and, prior to that, as an office manager, secretary, union coordinator, library assistant and reporter. Born in Quebec and raised in Sackville, New Brunswick, she lived for some 40 years in Vancouver, British Columbia. Sandy Shreve now makes her home on Pender Island in BC, where she is diving into a relatively new interest in photo art.

Kate Braid has edited, co-edited and written eleven books and two chapbooks of poetry and non-fiction, many of them about working people including miners, fishermen, and artists Emily Carr, Georgia O'Keeffe and Glen Gould. Her poetry has won or been nominated for national, provincial and local prizes. Her most recent poetry book, Rough Ground Revisited, based on her 25 years as a construction carpenter, is a companion to her memoir, Journeywoman: Swinging a Hammer in a Man's World. For 12 years she also taught creative writing in Vancouver and Nanaimo, BC, including classes on how to write in form. In 2015 Braid won the Mayor of Vancouver's Arts Award in recognition of leadership and contributions to the Vancouver literary arts. She divides her time between the beauties of Vancouver and Pender Island.
