This chapbook series is named in honor of Joanie Whitebird, a co-founder of Wings Press. As the Texas Observer described her, Joanie was “an old-fashioned fence hater, a wire-cutter, a woman in love with the open road, with open relationships, with open futures fraught with possibilities.” We honor her spirit by using this series to introduce new and innovative poetic voices.
