Bio

Robin Turner's poems, prose poems, and flash fiction have been tucked inside little poetry houses in Pittsburgh, paired with photographs in a Deep Ellum art gallery, and transformed into tiny artist books for the White Rock Zine Machine in Dallas. Her work appears in Rattle, Rust+Moth, The Texas Observer, Bracken Magazine, One, Literary Mama, and elsewhere in print and online. A longtime community teaching artist and writing instructor, she lives in North Texas and serves on the editorial staff for Sugared Water.
