Naganawa’s The Ark and The Bear is a series of prose poems that explore how experiences like religion and war are filtered through the lens of childhood. Swartz’s Land of Lists is a series of list poems (a form popularized by Kenneth Koch in the 1970s) that radiates energy through stream-of-consciousness and urgency. \n\nKate Peterson earned her MFA from Eastern Washington University\, where she now teaches composition as an adjunct faculty member. Her poetry has appeared or is forthcoming in Sugar House Review\, Packingtown Review\, Aethlon\, Glassworks\, and The Sierra Nevada Review\, among others. Grist is her first published collection. She can be reached at katelaurenpeterson.tumblr.com. \n\nPhoto by Timothy Aguero for Poetry on Buses\, King County\, WA\nArlene Naganawa is the author of two chapbooks: Private Graveyard (Gribble Press) and The Scarecrow Bride (Red Bird Chapbooks).

She is the recipient of Seattle Arts Commissions Individual Literary Arts Awards. \n\nLydia Swartz brawls with words\, sound\, movement\, pronouns\, and light in pursuit of capricious form. She has a degree in editorial journalism and a job in health care marketing. She blogs at No One Tells and keeps a Seattle Spoken Word calendar at Seattle Poet. You can find Lydia on Facebook (zen.flaneur) and Twitter (@nounverbadverb). \n\nFloating Bridge Press was founded in 1994.
