Jenna Mather | Writer

I’m so excited to have a poem included in Iowa City Poetry in Public 2024! Iowa City was an incredible home for me as a writer for the last three years, so I’m really grateful to continue being part of this community in any way possible. Thank you, @IowaCityofLit!

My first Substack post is up!!! I wrote about how reading I Who Have Never Known Men changed how I think about writing! open.substack.com/pub/subplotswi…

I’m starting a Substack!!!🥳🤗 I think we can all agree that sometimes a subplot is the best part of a story... That’s why I’m starting Subplots, a home for my poems, stories, and essays about whatever's on my mind as an emerging writer! open.substack.com/pub/subplotswi…

In 2024, I had 7 poems published. Sharing those words meant the world to me. Thank you so much to anyone who read them.🥹❤️

My poem “Bibliophile at Lunch” came out in @bluemarbleREV this week!!! This is a poem for all my fellow bookworms—the readers who love stories so much, we sometimes wish we could eat them.🤗📖🍴

@chbrookins @bluemarbleREV Thank you!!

My poem “February 15th” was published in the November 2024 poetry issue of @bluemarbleREV!!! I wrote it after Valentine’s Day this year, hoping to honor all the small moments that make relationships beautiful outside of the day made for celebrating them.❤️ bluemarblereview.com/february-15th/

I can’t wait to read some awesome CNF submissions!!!☺️
