Welcome!

Beverly A. Jackson was born in Arizona, raised in a military family, and caught wanderlust at an early age. She went to 21 different schools, and has lived in Trinidad, French Morocco, Spain, and those wilder places, New York City and Los Angeles. She recently moved to Naples, Florida from Asheville, N.C. and promises to hang it up here in tropical paradise. Maybe.

Her ongoing work-in-progress is a memoir called

"The Loose Fish Chronicles"

(pieces of which have been published from time to time). This bildungsroman is a series of stories set in different cities, different years. She plans on seeking representation by the end of 2013.

Her publishing credits, art works, and various other interests can be found in the linked pages above.

Here is a link to an interview done by the wonderful poet,Patricia Gomes for LILY MAGAZINE. It probably provides more history and details than one could find anywhere else:

Another link to an interview by Elizabeth Glickman in r.k.vr.y can be found HERE

She was the Founder and Editor in Chief of an independent press, Literary Potpourri, "Lit Pot" which published soft cover books of poetry, short stories and novels from 2000 to 2006. In addition, she published her own monthly online literary journal until 2006,

"Ink Pot"


if you don't think there's a wall to hit...you haven't lived yet!
