LeeAnn Nichole (Holmes) Adams writes under the pseudonym, L. N. Holmes. She is the author of Space, Collisions, a micro-chapbook published by Ghost City Press. Her fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction have appeared in literary journals and magazines such as Newfound, Obra/Artifact, Crack the Spine, Vestal Review, and F(r)iction, among others. Her longer projects are mostly works-in-progress. In addition to her creative writing, she’s written many book reviews, literary journal reviews, interviews, news articles, and more. She currently serves as a fiction editor for Green Briar Review and as a writing center consultant for Metropolitan Community College.
Graduating from Salem College in 2013, Holmes received a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing with minors in English and History. Later she attended Creighton University, where she received her Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing in 2017. In addition to formal education, she’s actively sought out other opportunities to learn and has attended writing conferences, workshops, and readings in many different states.
She has been honored with the 2012 Katherine B. Rondthaler Award for Poetry, the 2013 Salem College President’s Prize for Creative Writing, and a first place for nonfiction in a literary journal from the North Carolina College Media Association in 2013. She was also a half-fellow in the Creighton University MFA program and her poem, “War Song,” was long-listed for the 2016 Wisehouse International Poetry Award. Her flash fiction, “Pheonix Fire Fight,” recently won the April 2018 contest at Apparition Literary Magazine.
A native of Wilmington, Ohio, Holmes currently lives in Bellevue, Nebraska. She’s married to her wonderful husband, Collin, and has three furry pets—a dog, Cattleya, and two cats, Rex and Hadassah. She’s a Christian who believes in protecting the planet, equal pay for women, and loving your neighbor. You can follow her on Twitter, Goodreads, Instagram, and LinkedIn—but she’s the most active on Twitter, where she tweets about literary stuff and video games.
