Why We Fished has received the UK Poetry Book Award's silver medal for 2023. Loderstedt's recent writings have been featured in Muleskinner Journal, the NC Literary Review, Bangalore Review, and Musepaper. He received a 2020 Ohio Arts Council Fellowship in Literature for his memoir manuscript, The Yellowhammer's Cross. Michael Loderstedt's first book of poems, Why We Fished, published by Redhawk Publications, is partly inspired by his upbringing on the barrier island of Bogue Banks, NC. Escaping a failed marriage, his mother moved the family to the island in 1965 to live with his grandparents, who'd built a beach house in Emerald Isle. It was remote then, accessible only by car ferry, much covered in dense forest and sand roads. Many of these poems explore themes of island life-resiliency, self-reliance born of isolation, and countless days spent fishing.
