Rosanne Singer is a poet and memoirist and a recent MFA graduate in Creative Writing & Publishing Arts from the University of Baltimore. Home Theater is her second poetry collection which she wrote and designed as part of that program. For 25 years she worked as a teaching artist in the Maryland schools and with small arts teams at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and Georgetown University Hospital. Recent work appears in Allium, Grist, Fatal Flaw Literary Magazine and The Baltimore Fishbowl. An earlier collection of poetry, Little Red Dot, was published in 2018. Rosanne is Editor-in-Chief at Passager Books, a small press that showcases the creative writing of folks over 50.
Ashlyn Mason Kenney is a writer who explores many forms, including poetry, essays, scripts, and succinct marketing language for branded content and marketing. Over the last six years, Ashlyn has been motivated and inspired to share her words through poetry—a form of writing that previously lived in journals with dog-eared pages or in personal letters to loved ones.
In 2021, Ashlyn enrolled in the Creative Writing MFA program at the University of Baltimore and received her degree in 2025. Her poetry explores memory, womanhood, and loving, and is often written in free verse. Ashlyn is the author of two self-published poetry collections, Growing Fruit (2020) and Something Left to Love (2025). Something Left to Love is available at ashlynmason.com.
