A contributor to Sinister Wisdom, E. F. Schraeder, wrote to us:

A number of years ago, Sinister Wisdom was home to one of my first published poems (it was quite a while ago . . . early 90's!).

I'm thrilled to announce that my first poetry chapbook, The Hunger Tree, was selected by Finishing Line Press as a semifinalist in the New Women's Voices series. Please see the attachment for a look at what authors and activists are saying about the collection.

The Hunger Tree can be ordered online, visit http://www.facebook.com/l/kAQFRLpoOAQFXyjjrFlEvnpgHPd7EIdzqoszKycPWXbDaz... and click on pre-order forthcoming titles.

EF ended saying,
Thank you so much for keeping space for lesbian writers and artists!

All of us at Sinister Wisdom are excited about your book and looking forward to its publication day!
