Nicole Tallman is a ghostwriter and poet. Her professional writing has appeared in The New York Times, the Miami Herald, the Los Angeles Business Journal, and on Al Jazeera, and her poetry is featured or forthcoming in the Train River COVID-19 Anthology, The Blue Mountain Review, Wrongdoing Magazine, and others. She also serves as the poetry ambassador for Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava; is the associate editor of South Florida Poetry Journal; and the editor of Stay Golden, a Golden Girls-inspired special zine. Her collection Something Kindred (The Southern Collective Experience Press) inspired Richard Blanco, 2013 presidential inaugural poet, to note that “Through the spare beauty of haiku and fineness of belles-lettres, Nicole Tallman pens an evocative and stirring account of grieving that echoes with ache in our hearts, but also soothes us with the understanding that love is immortal despite our losses.”
