Kris Nicholas ConradKris Nicholas Conrad (he/him) has filled many notebooks, napkins, bound journals, sticky notes, used envelopes, and phone apps with lots and lots of lines, many of which will hopefully never see the light of day. In college, he won the Nemet Scholarsip for Excellence in Creative Writing twice. In the present day, Nick is honored to have placed his debut chapbook with Arcana. His poems explore themes of memory, anxiety, community, existing queerly on a quirky planet, healing, recovery, and self-discovery. Nick has published individual poems in several zines and other publications, including the Massachusetts Bards Poetry Anthology 2025, and he reads at poetry events throughout southeastern New England. Nick lives in Eastern Massachusetts with his artist/musician/fix-anything partner and their canine copilot. Read More Read Less
