Biography and Submissions

Sarah Webb

Retired from teaching English at the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma, Sarah Webb co-edits the online Zen arts magazine Just This.  She recently ended twelve years of editing poetry and fiction for USAO's multidisciplinary journal Crosstimbers.

Her poetry and essays have appeared in a number of Zen publications, and her poetry is published regionally and nationally.  Some of her latest poetry can be found in Blue Rock Review and The EnigmatistHer poetry collection Black, which will be published this summer by Virtual Artists Collective, explores the sacred in different cultures.

Sarah is a member of the poetry chorale and performance group Quartet, with Carol Hamilton, Dena Madole, and Carl Sennhenn.  In addition to the usual readings her poetry has been performed chorally with Quartet, set to music for concerts (by Stephen Webber) and CD (by Sky), and danced (Kaleidoscope Dancers).  She is presently experimenting with combining visual images and writing.  One of her drawings appears on the cover of the current The Enigmatist.

The best moments in Sarah’s teaching were writing expeditions with students to travel the Comanche Trail and the migration route of the Kiowa down to Oklahoma and her teaching in the Kiowa Clemente humanities course.

Sarah was raised in Texas and has returned to live there after years in the Northwest and Oklahoma. She lives on the shore of a lake in the Hill Country with her rambunctious hound dog, Rex.  She is writing an illustrated account of her travels across the West in her VW bus.
