Beth Gulley, professor of English, has had her poem “Prayer Beads” accepted for publication in the forthcoming anthology titled, From Everywhere a Little: A Migration Anthology.  According to poet Lisa Vihos, editor of the anthology, From Everywhere a Little will contain poems that speak to the “broadly defined theme of ‘migration.’ This includes migration (of people, animals, and ideas), immigration (in current events and throughout history), cultural movement through time and space, taking root in a place, finding home wherever we find ourselves, and being a collaborative citizen of the world.” More information about the anthology can be found here.  From Everywhere a Little: A Migration Anthology is expected to be published later in 2019.
