debora Ewing

Dinner mallet connoisseur, queen of the dirt-pile, 2 AM oracle, deb stands at a crossroads of her own making: the juxtaposition of beauty and morbidity.

deb's work is powered by life in disparate situations: from hardscrabble tenant farmer in Deep East Texas to self-described "lawn hermit" in Northern Virginia, known to create polished dirtballs from an accidental fill dirt dump in her front yard.

With a sense of inner survival, she crafts darkness into hope using words nobody knows without looking them up. deb is endorsed by Debs everywhere for not knowing how to stay in her lane and speaking in her outside voice ALL THE TIME. Her favorite things are pie and over-educated dad jokes. debora Ewing embraces the Other – all of it.

debora Ewing is a poet, artist, off-the-cuff author and editor. Her poetry and artwork are published in online and print literary magazines around the globe: Plainsongs by Hastings College Press, Dodging the Rain, Beyond Words, Creative Nonfiction, and Shot Glass Journal, to name a few.
