Author's Bio

C.M. Rivers grew up reading books to the sound of rain on the roof, in the valleys and mountains of Oregon.  The author of How To Carry Soup: Poems (2020, Homebound Publications) and Along the Way ~ Poems for the Wayward (2023, Wayfarer Books), his poems have appeared in literary magazines and journals across the United States - some in tangible, good old-fashioned ink on paper you can hold in your hands, and some adrift in cyberspace.
