Kenneth P. Gurney lives in Albuquerque, NM where he practices the craft of poetry and takes long hikes on the foot hill trails and regularly bicycles the Rio Grande bike path. 

He edits an anthology of New Mexico poetry titled Adobe Walls, which will have its first issue later in 2010.

Previously, he edited & produced three poetry publications: Hodge Podge Poetry (1995-1998 in print), Tamafyhr Mountain Poetry (1998-2007 on the web) and Origami Condom (2007-2008 on the web). 

From time to time he puts on poetry workshops focusing on surrealist writing techniques .

Kenneth has been featured in readings from coast to coast.  His work appears mostly on the web as he tends to spend reading fee & SASE money on flowers (or pumpkin spice cookies) for his Dianne.

Kenneth hosted open mics in many of the locations he has lived: Milwaukee, WI; Taos, NM; Frederick, MD; Port Angeles, WA and Albuquerque, NM.

After 20 years as a painter/designer, Kenneth switched to poetry in 1993 and has not looked back.  Occasionally, he produces artwork to go with the poetry.  His current artsy project is “real mail poetry post cards” that he sends out to a group of friends.
