About the author

Samantha Josie Lockwood

Samantha Josie Lockwood seated in a green chair.

Samantha Josie Lockwood is a poet and writer from Long Island, New York. She has been writing poetry for as long as she can remember, drawn to every nook and cranny of human nature.

At Cornell University, she studies philosophy and has found creative homes in directing and music. Beyond writing, she is drawn to singing, guitar, reading, and every form of creation.

She is the author of three independently published collections: The Elusive You, The Newest Endings, and The Final Breath. Her greatest wish is the same one she has carried through every book: never to stop writing. She doesn't think she ever will.
