Neli Moody is a writer and a lecturer at San Jose State University.  After
Altamira, published by Ishmael Reed Publishing Company, is her first
published collection. The poems address widely diverse subjects  with
passion and  trace our efforts as humans to connect with each other,
through words, art and music. They are grounded in the deep and intricate
relationship between humans and our planet Earth. Subsequent collections,
while varying in theme, find their genesis, too, in nature and the complex
processes of growth and decay, love, and loss.

Neli Moody

I am writing lots of poems, awaiting word from various potential
publishers. Have sent out a couple of mss. I will be teaching Composition
and Dreams and Art in the fall, 2010.. My essay ""A Syntax of Stones:
Pre-Text, Edifice, and the Sacred Space in Richard Berengarten's’
'Avebury'" will be published by Salt Publications in the UK as part of its
Companion text to Richard's work in 2010. That essay will appear in the
July issue of Jacket Magazine this year.  Her poem "Full Worm Moon" is  
in the Spring issue of the  Adirondack Review.
