The blogs I like best are the ones that are created around a theme--so, this blog will focus on my life as a poet, along with other creative ventures.
About Me
- Kristin Berkey-Abbott
- A poet, a scholar, an administrator, a wanna-be mystic--always wrestling with the temptation to run away to join an intentional community--but would it be contemplative? social justice oriented? creative? in the mountains? in the inner city?--may as well stay planted and wrestle with these tensions and contradictions here, at the edge of America.
