Bio:
Richard Manly Heiman lives in the pines on the west slope of the Sierra Nevada in northeastern California—the “Gold Country.” He works as an English and history teacher and writes when the kids are at recess. He is inspired by mountain meadows, cinnamon bears and haunted sugar pine stands. He’ll sometimes sit on a lightning blasted stump at 4200 feet for hours, just to listen. Richard has been published by Rattle, Christian Century, Cowboy Poetry Press, Spiritus (Johns Hopkins U.), and elsewhere. He is a two time Pushcart nominee and his website URL is http://www.poetrick.com
