I’m Skyler Lambert, an Appalachian writer, editor, and publishing professional. My work and sense of self are rooted in the southern hills of West Virginia and Virginia, which, no matter the physical separation, will always carry the rhythm of my heart. I enjoy sharing my literary voice through poetry and creative nonfiction.

My favorite writers include Diane Gilliam, Karen Salyer McElmurray, Greg Bottoms, Frank X Walker, Neema Avashia, Breece D’J Pancake, Naomi Shihab Nye, Albert Camus, Tommy Orange, and Obed Silva.

My poem “The Knife Is in My Hand” is now published in Mantis 24. Support international writers and artists by grabbing a copy!
