"The journey behind Malinsky Mason's poetry is powerful
and her words impale with hard-hitting language, much
like cancer does to human cells.   Her artwork is equally assertive, in particular the collage titled 'Hospital Gown,' which
says, 'I’ve walked through fire and will never be
the same' without using a single word
, haunts with the
damage that comes from cancer, and speaks volumes of
the dehumanization a serious illness can cause."
​

-- HEIDI ZULL, PROFESSOR OF S
OCIOLOGY AND RESEARCH WRITING,
UNIVERSITY OF DUBUQUE AND MODERATOR OF THE DUBUQUE AREA WRITERS GUILD
