Shawn Aveningo

 

Shawn Aveningo is a globally published, award-winning poet who can’t stand the taste of coconut, eats pistachios daily and loves shoes… especially red ones. Shawn’s poetry has appeared in over 80 literary journals and anthologies, including LA’s PoeticDiversity which recently nominated her work for a Pushcart Prize. She’s given birth on two continents, and her three children make her an extremely proud “mama bear.” She was the founder and host of the popular Verse on the Vine poetry series in Folsom, CA. Since moving to Portland to share in the creative life with her soul-mate, Shawn has become the new designer of the VoiceCatcher Journal and has continued to publish poetry books and anthologies via The Poetry Box®.
