“Writers on the Plains inspired me to keep writing. This was a good experience for me. I feel more confident in my poetry writing.”
—N. Pflager, Writing Group Participant
Thomas Glasco lead a writing workshop in Morgan County in the spring of 2006 both online and in-person via the Fort Morgan Public Library.
Thomas Glasco, one of twelve children, was reared on a farm in Cheyenne Country Kansas near St. Francis, where he attended and graduated from a one-room country school. For his graduation ceremony he memorized and recited a poem entitled "The Twins." Now he reads from his own books. He is the author of four books of poetry, Take Hold My Heart, Mucd on a Stick, Follow the Swans, and Under the Mulberry Tree. The books are available at the Book Nook in Fort Morgan.
He graduated with a major in Sociology and a minor in English from Kearney State College and received his Masters degree in Social Work from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. After a twenty-five year career as a clinical therapist, writing is now his life. He is the recipient of the Milestone Award at the 1999 Wyoming Writer's Convention.
Thomas Glasco's work is currently available at the CSU Bookstore.
