Thrilled to share the news that my poems “We Live on a Foreign Planet This One” and “Sneaking Back Inside” have been accepted at cream city review! Back in 2012 they published my poem “Communication Problems in the Middle Ages” which later appeared in my book The Maintenance of the Shimmy-Shammy. It’s so great to have work forthcoming from there again!
Happy to learn that the manuscript of my second book of poetry was a semi-finalist for the Pleiades Press Editors Prize for Poetry! Congratulations to the winner Sarah Barber for her manuscript Country House!

Thanks so much Courtney Flerlage, Helen Chandler, and the rest of the good folks at Meridian!

My lyric essay “Strike Anywhere” has been published online in Quarterly West Issue 91. This essay is from a series based on the four classical elements, and its theme is fire. Huge thanks to Noam Dorr, Sara Eliza Johnson, JP Grasser and the rest of the Quarterly West staff. Also, I want to say a scorchingly grateful thank you to my generous friends and family who allowed me to audio record them for this, including those whose interviews never made it into the final draft.

Thrilled to share the news that my lyric essay “Strike Anywhere” has just been accepted at Quarterly West. This is the second essay from my recently completed series on the four classical elements to have found a home–it’s theme, no surprise, is fire. Also Jack Tripper’s in it. On skates.
