About Me

Hello! Im Bronmin, a poet from across the U.S., Mexico City and London. I currently live in Chicago, Illinois, where I have at last completed my first book of poems. Myy poems have appeared in various places, including: The Green Muse, Gnome, LanguageandCulture.net, X Magazine, Illya's Honey and The Aurora Review. I am also the editor of the e-zine, HereThere (www.heretheremag.com), and host of the show, Poet's Kitchen (www.poetskitchen.com.) In my spare time, I play bass guitar and co-write music with my husband, Kirk Sonnenberg. Our ongoing musical project is called Sword-Lily.
