Stephanie L. Harper: Finalist in Red Wheelbarrow Poetry Prize

Posted on October 6, 2021 by robert okaji

Red Wheelbarrow

I’m so proud to report that Stephanie L. Harper was chosen as a finalist by Mark Doty (!) for the Red Wheelbarrow Poetry Prize. Over 1800 poems were submitted by 622 writers. Three prize winners and five finalists were named. She’s too modest to brag about this, but that’s what I’m here for!
