Praise for LOVELY AND SUFFERING

Your poetry is like thunder and lightning and all that it's like to be a woman. Thank you for sharing your soul in words.

-Mytrae Meliana, author of BROWN SKIN GIRL

Stacy Dyson's poetry is searing, sultry, and hilarious by turns. There is anger and intensity, fury and pain, but also praise and devotion, love and laughter for the friends and fellow artists who have pulled her through this pandemic year. Don't miss her kick-ass ode to Stacey Abrams in ""100,"" or the blisteringly funny trio of poems directly addressing the white privilege of the clueless Karens of the world. And just try reading ""Breonna's Song"" without weeping. Best news of all: Stacy's next book is coming soon (entitled FOLLOW ME ON THIS), so if you enjoy LOVELY AND SUFFERING as much as I did, there's more to look forward to!

-MEREDITH MUNDY

Praise for FOLLOW ME ON THIS

The language of Stacy Ardis, is the language of America. Not the English of England or the America of another time, but here right now. While her ""Lovely and Suffering"" collection is more about the strange last pandemic year, or the divisive last four presidential years, ""Follow Me on This"" takes on a larger canvas, delving deeper into the language and culture of Black America, at a more deliberate and measured, but no less intense and urgent, pace. It illuminates ideas, anguished feelings, and neglected histories as only good poetry can.

-Farhad Bahrami

Stacy Dyson is a Black woman poet/playwright/performance coach. Currently living in New Mexico (and actively plotting to get back to San Diego as soon as possible), she spends her time ""trying to make a way out of no way"". She is also founder and lead poet for TESORO, an international women's poetry group. ""We're called ""firesingers"" for a reason. The words challenge, purify, provide the chance to re-build. Because as a woman, there is truly no other way.
