Sail with her." Rob Pockat, founding editor of Stoneboat Literary Journal called Waiting to Sail "a graceful and perceptive meditation of human connection-physical, mental, emotional, philosophical-to the world we inhabit." Georgia Ressmeyer twice received grants from the Wisconsin Arts Board. She has published fiction, hundreds of poems, and an award winning poetry chapbook, Today I Threw My Watch Away (Finishing Line Press, 2010), in addition to her new book.
