| Introduction | Angie Azur is an MFA candidate in Writing for Children & Young Adults at Vermont College of Fine Arts. She thinks in poems and writes strange, lyrical MG and YA stories rooted in nature, grief, and magic. Her work is drawn to trees that remember, children who listen to what others overlook, and the wild, living world just beneath the ordinary one. |
