:) asked Leah Raeder:

You write really poetic, vivid prose, do you yourself have a favorite poet? By the way, I want to say THANK YOU for doing something different in the New Adult Genre. I'm really tired of the typical stories that fill the genre.

Leah Raeder Thank you kindly, Stella. My favorite poet by far is Sylvia Plath. Listen to her read "Fever 103°"--it's unreal. http://www.poetryfoundation.org/learn...

There's a glorious viciousness and ugliness beneath the beauty in Plath's work that I just can't get enough of. She was a feminist, she was fucked up, and she wrote the raw truth about it. I admire the hell out of her. Not just her poetry, but her prose and journals are incredible, too.
