“Metamorphose” is an erasure of pg. 11 from Minecraft: The Island by Max Brooks, published by Mojang AB and Mojang Synergies AB © 2017. So far, I have only experimented with erasures using books. I learned about this form while working on my bachelor’s degree and found I rather enjoy it. I find it to be a very useful form when I am feeling creative but words just won’t form. I just grab a book off my shelf, make a copy of a random page, and get to work.

April Garcia’s work has appeared in multiple anthologies published by both the Laurel Crown Foundation of San Antonio, Texas and Southern New Hampshire University. Garcia had work in Northwest Vista College’s Spring 2009 literary journal The Lantana Review and  in SNHU’s The Penmen Review.
