Dear All,
I am your editor Gabriela Marie Milton. Most of you know very little about me. I was born in Europe and I am an US based university professor. I am fluent in three languages. I am also an award winning author and the author of two poetry collections published by Vita Brevis Press.
Thank you to everyone who contributes to MasticadoresUsa. Your poetry makes the world more beautiful. Thank you to everyone who reads us. I am humbled by your kindness and your support.
Every day I strive to schedule posts and show gratitude to everyone. I strive to support as many writers as I can. I strive to bring new writers into our community. I strive for quality.
In 2020 I was voted Author of the Year at Spillwords Press (NYC).
It is with the greatest pleasure that I write to let you know that two of our poets were nominated for 2021 Author of the Year at Spillwords Press (NYC) : our monthly contributor: Ingrid Wilson and our contributor Jaya Avendel.
To both of them congratulations from the bottom of my heart.
Please help our MasticadoresUsa’s writers shine. Please vote for the new Spillwords Press Author of the Year.
Time is of essence. Note that you cannot vote for two authors. You can cast only one vote in each category.
Thank you for showing love.
Thank you for making our world a better please.
Sincerely,
Gabriela
