Her work has been published in many journals, including Apricity Magazine, The Berkeley Poetry Review, Evening Street Review, Hollins Critic, I-70 Review, The MacGuffin, Midwifery Today, So to Speak, Southern Poetry Review, and Midwest Quarterly.
In 2003, Graser initiated a monthly poetry reading series at Saratoga Springs’ legendary Caffe Lena, which continues to gather poets and poetry enthusiasts some 20 years later. Her dedication to this series has fostered a strong community of poets and helped make Caffe Lena a central hub for poetry in the area. Graser often reads her work at rallies, fundraisers, and poetry events in the area and has run poetry workshops for teens and at-risk youth. |

| | | Consider A Membership to Calling All Poets (Pretty Please)
We've never really done this before but we would like to ask you to please consider a donation or a membership to CAPS. 2025 promises a host of new featured voices from Ireland, Malaysia, and seven different states. We're brainstorming another anthology, this one based on the need for RESISTANCE!
We also hope to expand the website to enable members to communicate with each other salon style to discuss various poetic ideas, post poems and seek feedback, etc. We'd also like to take RESISTANCE! on the road for readings. Plus the calls for more JAZZOETRY are growing louder and louder.
So please consider what CAPS means to you and consider a membership or donation. The link to the membership info/page is https://callingallpoets.net/community/membership.
If you would like to donate or join you can also use the TipJar on the CAPS homepage or PayPal us at me...@callingallpoets.net Remember: CAPS is, because you are.
