“Being a writer means seeking out mystery, discovering beauty, sharing experiences, and wrestling with words to tell the truth about our lives simply and honestly.

My poems have been included in numerous journals and anthologies including The New Southerner, Great Smokies Review, Kakalak, Pinesong, Sow's Ear and Main Street Rag. I've published three poetry chapbooks and produced a CD of my original poems. ​

I've served as the statewide student poetry contest manager for the NC Poetry Society and emcee the annual Poetry Out Loud North Carolina state finals. I'm listed on the touring artists directory for the N.C. Arts Council and the United Arts Council of Raleigh and Wake County.” - Michael Beadle
