Amie Whittemore is #1.

Our first In Process event will be Thursday, September 3, at 4:30.

We’re delighted to kick off the In Process season with Amie Whittemore. You may know Professor Whittemore from your classes at MTSU (including her very popular ENGL 2500: Introduction to Creative Writing). Whether you know her (yet) or not, you’ll surely be interested in reading about her recent major award as well as her recent project, Dream Geographies.

Amie Whittemore is the author of the poetry collection Glass Harvest (Autumn House Press), the 2020 Poet Laureate of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and an Academy of American Poets Laureate Fellow. Her poems have won multiple awards, including a Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Prize, and her poems and prose have appeared in The Gettysburg Review, Nashville Review, Smartish Pace, Pleiades, and elsewhere. She is the Reviews Editor for Southern Indiana Review and teaches English at Middle Tennessee State University.
