Welcome! I am grateful for your attention to my words.
My name is Kari A. Flickinger. I spent my childhood wandering aimlessly through the mountains of Northern California; however, I have ultimately completed my de-evolved quest somewhere near the sea.
I currently work as a freelance writer, proofreader and researcher in the San Francisco Bay Area.
My writing has been nominated for Best of the Net and the Rhysling Award. I am a regular contributor to Headline Poetry & Press and a co-editor for their Restoration Volume 1 project. I am also a reader for Palette Poetry. When I am not writing, I play my guitar to my unreasonably large Highlander cat, Bear.
