RIVER HERON REVIEW
River Heron Review is an online poetry journal founded in January 2018 by Robbin Farr and Judith Lagana (retired). First envisioned as a journal and means to broaden the reach of poetry and recognize the work of both established and newly published poets, it grew quickly to include other ventures. Now, via the website, readers can register for creative writing workshops. The website also includes current and back issues, interviews with writers, and book reviews. With the addition of these avenues for cultivating a poetry climate, the purpose of serving the literary arts community through publication, public readings, workshops, and bringing the written word to life in as many ways as possible has become a reality.
