November 4: Tzynya Pinchback Features at Stone Soup Poetry

Stone Soup Poetry meets every Wednesday online from 7:00-9:00 PM via Zoom. Stay tuned for updates on any future live gatherings. On November 4, we kick off the month and the aftermath of midterms with the poetry of Tzynya Pinchback.

Tzynya Pinchback writes the Black woman body in illness, in nature, and joy as a deliberate act. She was awarded a 2024 PEN America Emerging Voices fellowship for her in-progress cancer memoir, and has current work in Foodstories Project: Intersections Between Food, Memory, Identity, and Our Stories, and Folsom State Prison library project. She is the 2025-2026 Writing the Land poet in residence at D.W. Field Park—an initiative to increase community access to conserved lands—and lives in an impossibly small house on a pond in Massachusetts where she paints fairy houses and dreams of one day writing a villanelle.
