I asked Shelton Green which writers have influenced her. It is quite a list:

Phillis Wheatley Alice Walker

Mari Evans Sylvia Plath

Pablo Neruda Anne Sexton

Rumi Amiri Baraka

Hafiz Isabelle Allende

Grimm’s fairy tales Paulo Coelho

Shakespeare Deena Metzger

Lucille Clifton Tempest Williams

Audre Lorde Carolyn Forché

Sonia Sanchez Lidia Yuknavitch

Robert Hayden Mary Oliver
