Autor

Hank Jones considers Texas and New Mexico, the birthplaces of his parents, to be as close to home as he knows, growing up as he did in the wake of his father's military career. After finishing a Master's in English at Tarleton State University, he taught for two years in Japan, then put a backpack on and traveled in various parts of the world until his money ran out. At that point, he got a job at his alma mater and has been teaching English there for twenty years (with a four-year stint as Assistant Director in the International Office). He received an MFA from Oklahoma City University in January 2019 and enjoyed the Oklahoma poetry scene so much, he and his wife now live in a house off Keystone Lake outside of Tulsa. His poetry has been published in Cybersoleil: A Literary Journal, Voices de la Luna, Dragon Poet Review, the Concho River Review, and Red River Review. He's also contributed poems to The Great American Wise Ass Poetry Anthology from Lamar University Literary Press, Speak Your Mind: Poems of Protest & Resistance, published by Village Books Press, the Stone Renga Anthology from Tale Feathers Press, and most recently Bull Buffalo and Indian Paintbrush (The Poetry of Oklahoma), edited by Ron Wallace.
