She has received nominations for both Pushcart and Best of Net. She has another chapbook with Dancing Girl Press called “This is not a love song to the dark.” Her earliest book was published under the name Ars Cogitanda, and is called “footnote to Silence.” It was published with gnOme Press and is available on Amazon. Pearl works as an editor with beginning poets because she believes very strongly in fostering the community of poets. She enjoys her life as a poetry coach very much; every time a student gets a poem published, it feels like a victory for the aesthetic life.
