As a writer I try and share with my reader what it is I have to offer, not what I have to sell. ... Read more

The poems in The Wrong Cat are vintage Crozier: sly, sexy, irreverent, and sad, and populated by fully realized characters whose stories take place in a small lyrical space. We learn about a mother’s last breath, the first ... Read more
