About Me

  • I am a poet, avid photographer and the onetime publisher/editor of Impetus magazine, which I published through Implosion Press. I am the co-founder of the Womens Art Recognition Movement (W.A.R.M.), based in the North Water Street Gallery in Kent, OH and used to be the owner of cat’s Impetuous Books & stuff, also in Kent, where I specialized in small press books and held regular poetry readings, art exhibits and live musical performances.

    In 2004, I played Jesus in the award winning indie film Jesus & Her Gospel of Yes, produced & directed with Al Eaker, which should be available on DVD soon.

    There is a taped phone interview of myself with Belinda Subraman, of Gypsy magazine fame (and so much more) up for your listening (I hope) pleasure at Belinda Subraman Presents (http://belinda_subraman.podomatic.com/) Do stop on by for a listen.

    There’s also a, umm, spicy page of my poetry & photography up at the Jesus Crisis - Crisis Chronicles(http://library.crisischronicles.com/2008/08/25/macho-sex-by-cheryl-a-tow...) site. Do check out all the other fabulous poets in his library.

    Poet, Beau Blue does some incredible animations and has added me to the Cruzio Cafe stage at http://www.cruziocafe.com/Townsend_cupofcoffee020409-130p_final.html
