Author : Chris Joyner

Infatuated with weightlifting and chewy words, Chris Joyner considers himself a “meathead poet.” He is currently an MFA candidate at the University of Miami, but his heart resides in Virginia. He won honorable mention in Winning Writers’ 2012 Sports Poetry and Prose Contest. In 2011 he was recipient of the Alfred Boas Poetry Prize and did some movie-telling at O, Miami. His work has appeared in Brusque, Fiddleblack, the Barely South Review, and elsewhere.
