Author: Jedediah Smith
Jedediah Smith writes poetry and fiction without the support of any university, grant, fellowship, foundation, medal, award, or academy. While he taught introductory composition at several community colleges as an adjunct, he has never been part of a creative writing program or even a teacher with a full-time position.
