How It Happens offers a great range of diction and emotion and examples Joyce E. Young's beautiful lyricism and her skill for truth-telling. By turns passionate, sorrowful, whimsical, reverential and funny this collection of poetry woke me up, hitting me straight without artifice. Often I felt like standing up and throwing my glass out of emotion, a kind of Balkan/Greek thing. -Robert Pesich

Autorenporträt
Joyce E. Young wears many hats: writer, teacher, daughter, sister, witness, rabblerouser, mentor, dancer, thinker, observer, activist, advocate, critic, and then some. She works to find a way through. She has been bringing poetry to classrooms, museums, bars, bookstores, afterschool programs, colleges, and streets for well over 20 years. She has been a Writers on Site fellow at The Oakland Museum and Oakland Public Library, a VONA Fellow, a member of Community of Writers at Squaw Valley, and writer in residence at Hedgebrook and Vermont Studio Center. She is a martial artist, yogini, and dancer. In addition to poetry, she writes fiction and non-fiction. Writing has been a life sustaining path; one that she continues to walk.
