Emma DeBono

Emma is an experienced writer and content creator, living in Brooklyn, New York. Growing up as an only child, she developed her love for story-telling from a very young age.

Emma published her debut poetry collection, Water the Plants While I’m Away, last autumn. Emma is also a freelance writer and a full-time cat and plant mom. Nature has always been an inherent part of Emma’s writing and was thrilled to find Plants & Poetry, the first journal she has come across that incorporate these two loves.
