Bøger af Steve Shultz

FM Ghost is a poetic journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. With a heavy theme of mortality, this debut collection by Denver poet Steve Shultz is both introspective and observational. The book's three sections - Within, Without, and Within (revisited) - explore themes of darkness and light, love and fear, hope and despair, grief and joy, life and death. FM Ghost is about striking a balance in a world of opposites.

Colorado author Steve Shultz exhibits a softer side of his poetry in his second book. "3: Poems for My Wife and Kids" is just that - a collection of love poems inspired by the three most important people in his life. This book of more than 50 poems, written mostly in short form, offers a glimpse of the first decade of a marriage and the wisdom gleaned from two young children.

This collaborative creature of a poetry book has suddenly appeared from a mutual continuing desire to create and support each other in letting the words of the authors loose. The blog community was a way of life during the time when words were angry and lost, beautiful and sharp. Settled into two kids and professions, marriages and poems, poems, poems; inspiration, feverishly written, carried us through.Many school days and work nights later, words crop up and jut out. Words struggling to express new sentiments, changed by escapades and deeds. The blogs faded without fanfare, no longer the medium of choice. Our words went underground. Or maybe, underwater.

A New West Vine Press Book. Within this collection of poems from Colorado native Steve Shultz, you'll find poems about lost time, sickness, shadowy figures, demons and dreams.

Thompson in college, which inspired him to declare a major in print journalism. He had some great times as a designer and reporter at some of Colorado's major newspapers, and had some fun times going to free concerts in exchange for reviews. The decline of print journalism led him to pursue a lengthy vacation in the name of finding his ""next chapter,"" and somehow, he ended up as a mailman. Writing has been there all along the way.
