Read Cynthia Jones-Shoeman's Blog
Cynthia (“Cindy”) Jones-Shoeman earned her MA in English from Colorado State University in 2007; her thesis was "Toni Morrison's Tetralogy." She received her MFA in Creative Writing from National University in 2009. She currently teaches Composition and Creative Writing classes for Pueblo Community College, and in the past has taught classes on job seeking, drama, computers, and life skills.
Writing, though, is Cindy’s first passion. She has published literary analysis on Toni Morrison and presented “Pariahs in Toni Morrison’s Fiction: Catalysts for Change” at the Society for the Interdisciplinary Study of Social Imagery (SISSI) Conference in 2008. She has also published fiction—Last Sunset hit the shelves in 2006. And over the course of more than ten years, she has had more than a dozen poems published in different venues.
Some of Cindy's interests include environmental issues, vegetarian and sustainable lifestyles, music, and reading.
