A finalist in four national contests, my chapbook, My Imaginary (Dancing Girl Press, 2010), claims humor as the site for inquiry into the erotic body.

“In her brilliant My Imaginary, sass and success, drag and heft come packaged in words that sway and tease, lift and laugh for our pleasure and sometimes pain. Who’s in charge here? we might wonder but the answer is always Laura Madeline Wiseman in her remarkable chapbook. Perfect.”

- Hilda Raz, author of Trans and All Odd and Splendid

“We might assume an imaginary…would prove provocative, but who knew it could be so funny? Spunky and heady, Laura Madeline Wiseman’s My Imaginary will excite you with a “slow touch of bliss.” Within poems and across the collection, Wiseman bounces between mind and body, stimulating us with playful rhythms and surprising twists of stereotype. My Imaginary is a great ride. And a fantastic read.”

- Christine Stewart-Nuñez, author of Postcard On Parchment.
