Her book Small Craft was published in 2022. \nJennifer M Phillips is a retired skydiver\, scuba diver\, priest\, and bonsai-grower\, settled on Cape Cod\, and has authored three chapbooks\, Sitting Safe in the Theatre of Electricity\, A Song of Ascents\, and Sailing to the Edges (Finishing Line Press)\, and a collection\, Wrestling With the Angel (Wipf and Stock Pub.\, 2024). Phillips’ work has appeared in over 145 journals\, and has been thrice-nominated for a Pushcart Poetry Prize\, and earned 1st prize – The Malovrh-Fenlon Poetry Prize- in the Orchard Street Press Poetry Competition 2026. \nScott Withiam’s most recent book of poems\, Waste Management Facility\, was released by MadHat Press in July 2025. Doors Out of the Underworld was previously published by MadHat Press\, and Arson & Prophets was published by Ashland Poetry Press.
