D.K. McCutchen

earned an MFA at the University of Massachusetts — Amherst when Shahid ruled poetry.  Lack of poetic – DNA led to a Pushcart nomination and Kiriyama Notable Book whatsis for nonfiction, and literary thingies for Fourth Genre, Hayden’s Ferry, etc.  Resorting to trade – trash, currently, she’s stuck a gender – bender post – apocalyptic novel while teaching writing at the University of Massachusetts — Amherst to young science – heads.
