Author's Bio

Examples of Linda’s poetry and a listing of publications can be found at lindaspoetryblog.blogspot.com.  When not writing, Linda is an avid reader, classical guitar player, and a practitioner of both Yoga and Tai Chi.  In, addition, she helps her husband, a Luthier, build acoustic guitars.  She lives in Wichita, Kansas, U.S.A. Linda enjoys her 200-gallon saltwater reef tank wherein resides her 20 year old yellow tang.  A retired teacher, who began writing in earnest in January, 2015, Linda believes that poetry has the potential to add to the beauty of the world.  Much of this beauty she feels can be found in the night sky and, on warm nights, her telescope serves as inspiration for this belief.  Linda Imbler’s poetry collections include eight published paperbacks: Big Questions, Little Sleep; Big Questions, Little Sleep second edition ; Lost and Found; Red Is The Sunrise; Bus Lights; Travel Sight; Spica’s Frequency; Doubt and Truth; A Mad Dance; and Twelvemonth.  Soma Publishing has published her four e-book collections, The Sea’s Secret Song; Pairings, a hybrid of short fiction and poetry; That Fifth Element; and Per Quindecim. Her new book, Rhythms Told, will be published in the future by Soma Publishing. Linda has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize and has six Best Of The Net nominations. Her poetry has been translated into Malayalam, Norwegian, Seqouyah-Cherokee, Hebrew, Swedish, Greek, Afrikaan, French, Maurtian Kreol, and Spanish.
