Jenn McCreary lives in Philadelphia where she co-edits ixnay press & works for the Mural Arts Program. Her new collection, :ab ovo:, is now available from Dusie Press. Rachel Blau DuPlessis writes about :ab ovo: "from the beginning-an articulate, touching, moving work about the experience of pregnancy and motherhood-from the lyric quiverings to the reality check; from the image-filled meditations to the swamped ATTY-tude; from the fondness for the idea of parenthood to the gritty, witty actuality. Trying to account for all the changes after those two dots, twin dots (that colon, and more) are put into play, the work arcs from magical yearning to an even more magical reality. A book of awe and charm from the inside out." Check out her new poem, "Barack Obama is My New Bicycle" up on
