CAITS MAKES ART

Caits Meissner’s poems, comics, nonfiction and curation have appeared in The Creative Independent, The Rumpus, [PANK], Harper’s Bazaar, Adroit, Literary Hub, Split This Rock, Bust Magazine, The Normal School, The Guardian and Oprah Daily, among others.

As the former Director of Prison and Justice Writing at PEN America, Caits edited The Sentences That Create Us: Crafting A Writer’s Life in Prison (Haymarket Books, January 2022), of which the Mellon Foundation funded 75,000 copies to reach readers in United States prisons free of charge.

Her latest project is Flowers For Linda: A new audiozine (some call it “podcast”) about creative relationship, giving the living their flowers, and the surprising lessons of grief.
