Lora Liegel lives in Bellingham, Washington, the ancestral homelands of the Coast Salish Peoples. She lives with her wife and two children. Liegel is a writer, poet, and community connector.
Liegel’s writing focuses on the complex relationships we have with each other, ourselves, and with nature. With vulnerability that gently envelops the reader, she invites us to examine familial connections and ask questions about our own origin stories. Liegel’s work has been informed by her extensive work and experience in the outdoors – on the trail, at farms, along the ocean, and in the great forests of the Pacific Northwest.
Liegel is also the author of Second Parent: a memoir and creator of the Second Parent Project which connects lesbian and queer, non-biological mothers online. She holds an MA in Social Science. More at loraliegel.com

What a beautiful collection of poems that invites us into the outdoors and inside ourselves at the same time. Lora paints beautiful portraits of damp forests and crashing waves, and takes us through the highest and lowest emotions. I already look forward to reading this again.
