An avid reader, Colleen M. Chesebro rekindled her love of writing poetry after years spent working in the accounting industry. These days, she loves crafting syllabic poetry, flash fiction, and creative fiction and nonfiction.
In addition to poetry books, Chesebro’s publishing career includes participation in various anthologies featuring short stories, flash fiction, and poetry. She’s an avid supporter of her writing community on Word Craft Poetry.com by organizing and sponsoring a weekly syllabic poetry challenge, called #TankaTuesday, where participants experiment with traditional and current forms of Japanese and American syllabic poetry.
Chesebro is an assistant editor of The Congress of the Rough Writers Flash Fiction Anthology & Gitty Up Press, a micro-press founded by Charli Mills and Carrot Ranch.
In January 2022, Colleen founded Unicorn Cats Publishing Services to assist poets and authors in creating eBooks and print books for publication. In addition, she creates affordable book covers for Kindle and print books.
Chesebro lives in the house of her dreams in mid-Michigan surrounded by the Great Lakes with her husband and two (unicorn) cats, Chloe & Sophie.

well that’s awesome! 🥰 rest well. Are these magnetic tiles physical? or electronic?
I’ve been trying to up my exercise. I walked 4 miles on a hike on Thursday and it took me until today to feel coherent. I walk a couple miles a day but that was too much for me. I guess I’ll stick to the 2 miles. ❤️
My asthma has been pretty good since we moved to Michigan. I’ve been working with Qigong yoga. It helps me with my breathing. I love how it makes you feel afterwards. 😍
I find yoga breathing helps too, but my allergies have gone haywire the past few years. I finally broke down and went to an allergist. He took some blood to see if he could figure out what the culprit is. We’ll see.
I’ve read that you can experience allergies at any age. There are so many climate change issues now. It’s making allergies unbearable! I hope they find a way to help you. I is Zyrtec and Flonase. It really helps. 😍❤️
Zyrtec used to work. I tried a bunch of things to no avail. I had to schedule a pulmonary test too which of course I couldn’t get until the end of July…at least it’s summer which is my least problematic time.
My pulmonary test is next Tuesday. I totally know what you’re going through. It’s good to have the tests. At least you have a benchmark for moving forward. Allergies are so difficult. I hope you find some relief, soon. ❤️

It’s a process, like everything. Summer is the best season for my breathing, so it’s always easier then.
