About the Poet

Paige Taylor Rindone (she/her) is a poet from Massachusetts: creative by day, insomniac by night. Her work has been featured in the 2026 edition of The Central Avenue Poetry Prize.

She enjoys sharing time with her loving husband and their kiddos (commonly referred to as pets), swimming at their local YMCA, and cozying up with a good movie or book with the fam. (Please let there be snacks.)

Through explorations of grief, mental health, trauma, and feminism, Paige's writing is sometimes heavy or sensitive (themes that may call for a content warning). She also explores love (like soul-mate level stuff), sex and intimacy (for mature-readers only). When you experience her writing, Paige hopes you feel seen, that you feel you're not alone, and simply (or not-so-simply) that you feel.

Her writing is an invitation to tend to the vulnerable parts of ourselves scarred with pain and shadowed in shame. Paige writes about what is important to her and shares her work as a means of connection. Because when we feel less alone in something, anything is possible.

She hopes her words stay with you. She hopes you stay with her.
