Yvonne Leach

Yvonne Higgins Leach’s second collection of poems In the Spaces Between Us hit the shelves this fall (2023), published by Kelsay Books. Her first collection Another Autumn was published by Cherry Grove Collections in 2014. Her poems connect to the world in a big way⸺ through an empathetic heart that seeks to understand the mysteries of the human experience. She does this through perfectly chosen images, simple language, and a genuine voice. She spent decades balancing a career in communications and public relations, raising a family, and pursuing her love of writing poetry. Her latest passion is working with shelter dogs. She splits her time living on Vashon Island and in Spokane, Washington.
