Anne Gudger is a Portland writer who loves language and space on the page. She writes about love and loss and how we get from there to here. She’s fascinated with the heart and its metaphorical fifth chamber that holds more love, that holds shadows. She’s been published in Real Simple Magazine, The Rumpus, Slippery Elm, NAILED Magazine, Entropy, Tupelo Press, Atticus Review, The Timberline Review, Columbia Journal, Sweet Lit, Cutbank, Cutthroat, The Normal School, The Los Angeles Review, and elsewhere. It’s been said that Anne eats books and has since she first decoded words.

Her debut memoir, THE FIFTH CHAMBER, was published September 2023 with Jaded Ibis Press. Kirkus Review called THE FIFTH CHAMBER, “An emotionally riveting memoir, raw and inspiring.”

You can purchase Anne’s book at your local bookstore or here at Bookshop: THE FIFTH CHAMBER or here at Amazon: THE FIFTH CHAMBER.
