ⓘ About Lucinda Roy

“Lady Moses” was a Barnes and Noble Discover Great New Writers selection. Her poetry collection, called “The Humming Birds” won the Eighth Mountain Poetry Prize. Lucinda’s a Distinguished Professor at Virginia Tech, and she gives presentations and keynotes on racism and race, creative writing, diversity, education, and campus safety. Lucinda’s favorite part about being a writer is getting to invent new worlds to live in. whether they are embedded in realism or speculation, the characters in these worlds have the capacity of inspire or empower, as they had created themselves and had absolutely nothing to do with Lucinda. She cannot think of anything that she would rather do than write. Well maybe eat and sleep, possibly even lie on a beach with a strawberry daiquiri.
