Sara Dombrosky is 21 years old and is currently pursuing a BA in English with a minor in Creative Writing at the University of Oregon. When she is not doing school work, she is either doing shifts at a chocolate shop inside one of the local malls, or she is hanging out in various places around downtown Eugene, where she can be found writing or reading. Much of her poetry is a bit strange in context and focuses around heavy descriptions and creating stories out of them. Nothing is off limits in this case.
Sreyash Sarkar is a poet, a qualified painter, a practicing Hindustani Classical musician and an aspiring Electrical Engineer. Educated in Kolkata and Bangalore, he has been a student correspondent at The Statesman, Kolkata from his school, South Point. He has been an active participant in various poetry and essay competitions in both Bengali and English and has won accolades by and far. In 2012, in an international poetry competition organized in memoir of Yeats, his poem was shortlisted among 40 other poets from all over the world. Besides being a freelance writer for several magazines, he is the editor-in-chief of Kalomer Kalomishak, a bilingual magazine, which he founded in 2013. Poetry, according to him, is similar to the entire process of macramé—an art of knitting of words. Being trained from an early age, in both classical music and Tagore-songs, he has imbibed in himself, a deep philosophical understanding of the Upanishads, Sufi songs, and other forms of folk poetry. Tagore has always been his raison détre and therefore has been an inspiration in his definitive understanding of Lalon Fakir’s songs. He had also got himself into painting very early on, and his works have been particularly influenced by Abanindranath Tagore, Anjolie Ela Menon, Picasso and Ganesh Pyne. An aesthete of a sort, he loves gardening, ikebana, books, home-made Bengali dishes and watching films. He currently divides his time between Kolkata and Bangalore.
Caleb Jaimes is a 26-year-old, self-taught, formal poet. Although, he supposes he has been taught by the masters themselves, Professors Shakespeare, Dante, and Pope. He studied English at UC Berkeley, has written a five-act homage to Shakespearean tragedy, and is in the process of writing a full-length epic allusion to Dante’s Divine Comedy. He has not been previously published.
Vivek Vashishth is a middle aged science graduate from India. Writing has always been a latent passion for the writer. He enjoys a steady online fan following for his writings and has published in local publications as well. He has a penchant for short stories with twisted dénouements. He finds motivation in mundane life events. Apart from being an avid tennis player, the writer enjoys adventurous treks, stargazing scouts, and sight-seeing trips.
George Moore’s recent collections of poetry include The Hermits of Dingle (FutureCycle Press, 2013) and Children’s Drawings of the Universe (Salmon Poetry, 2014). Nominated for Pushcart Prizes for five consecutive years, he has been a finalist for The National Poetry Series, The Rhysling Award, The Brittingham Award, The Anhinga Poetry Prize, The Wolfson Award, and others. His poetry has appeared in The Atlantic, Poetry, North American Review, Colorado Review, Blast, Antigonish Review, Chelsea, Orion, and elsewhere. He lives with is Canadian wife on the southern shore of Nova Scotia.
