Dana Hansen’s review for Room magazine is now available online! “Oscar of Between is a dynamic work of startling insight.”

Many Gendered Mothers Project

If you’ve been following Betsy for a while, you know that she’s an inspiring and experienced mentor and editor. In a moving essay for the Many Gendered Mothers project, Elee Karljii Gardiner pays tribute to Betsy, referring to her as a “poetrymother,” she describes what it was like to be mentored by Betsy: “She taught me a problem should be written into rather than ignored.”

Many Gendered Mothers is an online “project on literary influence featuring short essays by writers (of any/all genders) on the women, femme, trans, and non-binary writers who have influenced them, as a direct or indirect literary forebear.” Go to their website to read Elee’s essay.

If you find these words of praise inspiring and haven’t read Oscar of Between: A Memoir of Identity and Ideas yet, order you copy here. Betsy will sign your book and add a personalized inscription.
