Heather Cox


Heather Cox was born in the flatlands of northeast Texas and raised in a small town in southwest Arkansas where cattle outnumber citizens exponentially. She received her B.A. in Writing from the University of Central Arkansas, where she was the recipient of The Margot Trietel Award for Excellence in Creative Writing.

Heather is the founding editor-in-chief of Ghost Ocean Magazine, a literary magazine that publishes poetry and flash fiction online and, beginning fall 2011, print chapbooks. 

Heather's poems have appeared in literary journals such as Pyrta, Psychic Meatloaf, Dark Sky Magazine, and Pear Noir!, among others. Her favorite writers are Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Matthew Rohrer, Joshua Poteat, and Blake Butler.If she's not consuming or creating poetry, Heather is likely getting copper stains from pinching pennies.
