It’s finally here!  The Discover Beaverton anthology is available now.  This eleventh issue of Lucky Jefferson brings together 11 writers and artists to highlight Beaverton, Oregon, through their poetry, flash fiction, creative nonfiction, and visual art.  It also includes a Foreword I wrote, plus interviews with the contributors, some of whom are published for the first time here!  I really enjoyed getting to guest edit this anthology, working with Lucky Jefferson’s founder and editor, NaBeela Washington. 

You can read Discover Beaverton online for free or order a physical copy.  Inside you’ll find creative work from Rodney Wilder, Derek R. Smith, Ruth Mota, Rhienna Guedry, Elizabeth Beechwood, April Hernandez, A.M. Arndt, Katie Briggs, Kate Tomich, Andria Lishka, and Marie Queen. 

This project came to fruition with support from the City of Beaverton Arts Program.
