Cassandra Keenan writes poetry, flash fiction and nonfiction. She also is a visual artist, with collage being her primary medium. Born and raised in New York City, she now lives in Las Vegas, NV, where she can often be found hiking and backpacking in the Spring Mountains wilderness.

As a writer, Cassandra draws inspiration from personal experiences that she finds visually or emotionally impactful. Dadaist and surrealist art also resonate with her, and she believes that works of fiction and especially poetry do not necessarily have to hold deeper meaning or even make conventional sense in order to be worth reading.
