About the author
Mary McCormack is a writer and writing teacher whose work spans poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. On her author website, she says she especially enjoys haiku and fantasy, and notes that her poems have been published in journals including Presence, Mayfly, The Heron's Nest, Acorn, Frogpond, Modern Haiku, Wales Haiku Journal, Blithe Spirit, and #FemkuMag.
Goodreads describes her as a writer and teacher of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, and notes that she won the 2022 Vancouver Cherry Blossom Haiku Invitational in the U.S. category. Taken together, these sources show a writer with a strong presence in contemporary haiku and a broader interest in imaginative writing.
Her own introduction adds a simple, memorable note: she is "enchanted by the sun." That sense of attentiveness and delight fits the spirit of her work, which often seems rooted in observation, brevity, and wonder.
