Fully into Ashes
by Sofia M. Starnes
Paperback, 96 Pages, Published 2011 by Wings Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-916727-70-3, ISBN: 0-916727-70-X

"Written in a modern and experimental style, this poetry compilation by Sofia M. Starnes contemplates the aesthetics of faith. Often drawing from Bible stories, this collection indirectly alludes to Christian themes and creates extended metaphors that spill from one poem to another. Filled with passionately physical imagery, this is Starnes’s quest for spiritual union with the Trinity."

ISBN-13: 978-1-962935-00-5, ISBN: 1-962935-00-0

"We had a small, enthusiastic group of participants for the workshop I ran in Richmond, Virginia, on May 6th, 2023, during the PSV Centennial Festival. The format of the workshop was slightly different from that of this book."






The Nearest Poem Anthology
by Sofia M. Starnes
Paperback, 250 Pages, Published 2014 by Cedar Creek Publishing
ISBN-13: 978-0-9891465-0-0, ISBN: 0-9891465-0-2

"The Nearest Poem Anthology is not a hit parade of poems, nor is it a selection of our most popular poets. Once a poem is written, the poet recedes powerless to do more and the poem must rely on a reader for its survival. It is the reader s response to a poem that guarantees its life. The anthology is, therefore, a testament to the multiple lives of poetry, its constant reincarnation. A poem may remain dormant for a while decades, even c ..."

Rocking Like It's All Intermezzo
Twenty-first-Century Psalm Responsorials
by Maryanne Hannan, Sofia M. Starnes
Paperback, 86 Pages, Published 2019 by Resource Publications
ISBN-13: 978-1-5326-9193-5, ISBN: 1-5326-9193-9

"What does it mean that the Psalms are the prayer book of the people? Rocking Like It’s All Intermezzo: Twenty-first-Century Psalm Responsorials is one such person’s prayer book. Using familiar refrains as their starting points, the poems attempt a balance between how the psalmist understood God’s faithfulness and how the poet’s lived experience requires revised understanding in some places, renewed commitment in others. In addition to a ..."

The Consequence of Moonlight
Poems
by Sofia M. Starnes
Paperback, 96 Pages, Published 2018 by Paraclete Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-61261-860-9, ISBN: 1-61261-860-X

"The act of writing poetry, for Sofia Starnes, is a “getting out of the way” so that a poem might occur, a poem that must itself become a place of resonance, where the reader might recognize a voice otherwise unheard. The Consequence of Moonlight is a poetic invitation to an awareness of an underlying Presence; it is also a call to be present as a loving witness of valuable—and vulnerable—things.These poems are written to be depositories ..."

"In the spring of 2008, Sofia and Bill Starnes needed to hunt for a letter in one of their cedar chests. They have three such chests, two having been in the Starnes household for decades. Ready to sort through layers of cloth, paper, trinkets . . . the material of mementos and of a life, they found at the bottom of one chest a packet of manuscript pages tied together with a red ribbon.
