Chris Warner, graduate of the Harvard University School of Education (M.Ed., ’97), is (still) an
emerging poet, and the author of a micro-chapbook, Strokes (Mostly) in
Silence; her poem, “Engulfed” was
nominated for a Pushcart Prize. She’s
been much-compared to Anne Sexton, and is also often described in terms of
royalty, as in: ‘The Queen of Longing,’ and ‘The Princess of Suburban
Dystopia.’ Chris also teaches yoga, core
strength, and mindfulness meditation in West Boxford, MA, and offers workshops
(including MBSR) throughout the greater Boston area. In January of 2014, Chris began co-leading
the creative writing program for inmates at MCI Concord, medium security
prison.Her writing process is, as Stephen King says, “ass in seat.” Everyday.
And she also works, everyday, at letting go of attachment to outcome.
