About GS Murphy:
GS Murphy is a Geneva, NY poet by way of Pittsburgh, PA. He is an Addictions professional to keep the lights on and an avid writer and photographer on the side. Having been published in "Prometheus Dreaming," " the Festival Review," and the "New Plains Review," he has been procrastinating in submitting to other publications ever since Foothills Publishing was generous enough to publish a book of his work, "Surviving the Day."
GS’s poetry is often taken from the everyday world, sometimes absurd, sometimes deeply personal, sometimes confessional.
His writing invokes family life, storytelling, life experiences and is influenced by so many talented writers both personal and popular. His work is best when performed (not necessarily by him), and with any luck will make you think.
