Bio Sketch
Hazel
Hall is a Canberra poet, musicologist and convenor of the School of
Music Poets. She has published in a wide range of local and overseas
journals and anthologies. Her publications include Sugar Loaf and Humming Birds with John Collard (2013), Eggshell Sky (2017) and Moonlight Over the Siding (forthcoming).
Empowered by the visually and emotionally resonant juxtaposition, a moment is keenly captured in Hazel's imagistic haiku whose unexpected L3 tugs at the reader's heartstrings.
