About SemiUrban Cartography
“SemiUrban Cartography” is the internet/self-publishing persona of Erick Mertz, a Portland based screen writer/fictionista/poet and ravenously, burgeoning filmmaker.
The website will feature rolling, perhaps infrequent updates on his many writing endeavors, from screen writing to a curiously carved novel, to the Autumn/Winter publication of his chapbook. This isn’t meant to be the exoneration of the absolute minutiae of his personal life — you want to know something, ask him outright. Care to read an update on his publications, you’ve come to the right place.
CURRENT FEATURES:
Of current interest on the site: check out the Semiurban Blog for updates on the Willamette Writer’s Conference and the Poetry section is being updated pretty frequently.
“I am a lean, tenacious weed
risen from so many sidewalks.”
from the poem “Semiurban Cartography”
