about this author
L. Lambert lived and worked as a teacher of English with the Peace Corps in Ukraine from 2005 to 2007. When he wasn’t learning Ukrainian or observing pro-democracy political rallies, he was writing about his experiences.
His most recently published work, Running in Place: A Year in the Life and Letters of a Prisoner, is a collection of found poems culled from a year's correspondence L. Lambert had with a pen pal of his who is serving time in a federal penitentiary.
L. Lambert’s non-fiction work about his Peace Corps experience was nominated for the 2007 Pushcart Prize. As well, an excerpt of When a Lobster Whistles in the Mountains: A Peace Corps Honeymoon in Ukraine, will be published in Peace Corps at 50, a four volume collection of stories celebrating the 50th anniversary of Peace Corps, in 2011. His work has also been published in various Peace Corps publications, including Worldview magazine and “In The Field” magazine, and his fiction has been published at Perigee.
He is hard at work completing a fantasy novel entitled The Aria of Davin Ford: Midnight Quit of Starlight.
