Victoria is a Hispanic Master's candidate at UCR for Creative Writing. She has been a featured reader and orchestrator at open mic events, held lectures for independent and academic poetry workshops, and published poetry ranging from zines to established publications such as About Place Journal/Black Earth Institute, EveryLibrary, and riot grrrl beachside cemetery. In the peak of all her madness, she still knows how to have a good time and usually craves to get into a bar fight for no reason.

Description
Cameron has been writing since 2012 and has been a force to be reckoned with when he gets in the zone to create. You may find him at your local watering hole or at a local show. He plays/tours in bands along with helping manage the press when he isn’t teaching High School students or playing school nurse. He travels frequently and tries to call out of work to travel even more.
