Originally from the woodsy warmth of a small town in the northern panhandle of West Virginia, Gloria J. Wimberley now lives with her husband and two daughters in South Florida where the eyeshine of gators and sky-blue "plumage" of plumbago are plentiful. When she is not writing or reading, she enjoys spending time with her family and submerging herself in the simple pleasures of gardening…preferably without the intrusion of scream worthy "monsters" such as camel-backec crickets and palmetto bugs.
Gloria J. Wimberley now teaches at Broward College in Ft. Lauderdale, which she considers a “soul-soothing gift”. While Gloria prefers poetry as her primary writing medium she is known to write prose when inspired.
Her most current works have been published by Muse Cafe Quarterly, Edgar Allan Poet & will be published by Edgar & Lenore's Publishing House in the upcoming women's anthology In The Company Of Women, as well as her collected works of poetry, Dialect of Dahlias, is scheduled for a Fall 2011 release, to be published by Muse Cafe Press.
