Renée Rigdon is a widowed, sober, nonbinary writer, artist, creativity instructor, and weirdo-about-town. They love blending the humor and tragedy of life into a milkshake of magic and hope. Their work reflects a deep connection to nature, the difficulties of being a human, and the aches and absurdities of everyday life.
In addition to poetry, Renée coauthored The AntiCraft: Knitting, Beading, and Stitching for the Slightly Sinister with the spectacularly talented Zabet Stewart.
When they are not writing, creating, or advocating for the importance of creativity for grown-ups, Renée fills their time with cat snuggles, jigsaw puzzles, and a good porch sit. They live in Lexington, Kentucky, with their awesome son and two absolutely precious perfect tortie cats.
