She will receive a CD copy of the issue. You can find her poem in this e-publication after March 1 at: http://www.flashquake.org.
Gelia Dolcimascolo, Pod leader of The Writers’ Circle at Georgia Perimeter College’s Dunwoody Campus, published five poems in each of two separate anthologies: The Art of Music—a Collection of Writings, Volume 1 (Piano Press) and The Awakenings Review, Volume 1 No. 2 (The Awakenings Project and the University of Chicago Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation). She won a first place award (a trophy!) in The Art of Music for “One Sister and a Piano.” Also, her poem “Timely Assistance” has been published in The Chronicle, a magazine for Georgia Perimeter College staff and community. Additionally, on February 12 at 10:30 she presented a poetry workshop at the Marcus Jewish Community Center in Atlanta.
