Marcie Lynn Tentchoff is an Aurora Award winning poet/writer from the west coast of Canada, where she lives in the middle of a rainforest with her family and various animals, both invited and not. Between the raccoons in the roof, the deer in the garden, the
chocolate-stealing skunks, and the occasional visiting cougar, she's
written poems and stories that have appeared in such magazines as
On Spec,
Weird Tales,
Dreams and Nightmares,
and Illumen, as well
as a poetry collection titled Sometimes While Dreaming, currently
available through Sam's Dot Publishing.
In a poetry cage-match between William Shakespeare and Sappho, while
the two contestants might be matched in skill, wit and fire,
Shakespeare would claim victory, if only for the fact that a greater
proportion of a modern audience would recognize and be chanting him on.
