Autorenporträt
Julie Schwerin, author of What Was Here (Folded Word Press), Walking Away From the Sunset (Brooks Books) and still growing wings (Backbone Press), came to haiku in the midst of cancer and grief journeys, writing one-breath poems to focus on the present moment with acceptance, wonder and appreciation. Schwerin was instrumental in establishing several haiku installations in the Midwest including The Forest Haiku Walk at the Holmes County Open Air Art Museum in Millersburg, Ohio (2015-present), the Seasons of Haiku Trail at The Holden Arboretum in Kirtland, Ohio (2018-2019) and Words in Bloom: A Year of Haiku at the Chicago Botanic Garden (2020-2021) to feature the work of other poets and bring further awareness to this deceptively simple and powerful poetic form.
