Her poems have been published in Runes, South Carolina Review, Spillway, and elsewhere.
Susan Terris’s book of poems is Ghost of Yesterday: New & Selected Poems. Norman Dubie says, “Susan Terris’ new and selected poems is described best in the surprising way its images align as proofs of story with and against voice…These are strongly meditative poems. This is a wonderful book.” A longtime co-editor of Runes, A Review of Poetry she is now editor of Spillway Magazine and is poetry editor for two other publications. She is the author of six full-length books of poems and three artist’s books; her work was included in PUSHCART PRIZE XXXI.
