Cream City Review

I have a poem in the new issue of Cream City Review, Volume 36, Issue 2 — The Labor Issue.

My work appears alongside a ton of great work including poetry by Hadara Bar-Nadav, fiction by J. A. Tyler, photographs by Christopher Woods, and an interview with Rebecca Hazelton.

Thanks Aviva Englander Cristy and her fellow editors at Cream City Review!

Paper Darts

Three of my prose poems have just been published in the online literary journal Paper Darts. You can read them HERE.

There is also a short, five question interview which you can read HERE.

I have adored this gorgeous literary magazine for a long time, and it’s such a please to have my own work appear there. Most of the time when I know my poetry is going to be published with illustration I’m sort of apprehensive. It’s such a difficult thing to do well. With Paper Darts, I was just excited. They have such a beautiful aesthetic and consistently excellent visual taste to go along with the wonderful fiction and poetry they publish. It’s an honor to have my work there.

Thanks so much Courtney Algeo, John Jodzio & the Paper Darts editors!

the minnesota review issue 80

My poems “Single Make Seeks Someone Who’ll Stay” and “Sword Swallowers In Transition” have just been published in issue 80 of the minnesota review.

the minnesota review publishes creative writing alongside literary criticism, and this issue also contains creative work by the likes of Roxane Gay, Dean Rader, Sean Lovelace, & Patty Seyburn (and others). On the critical side there’s a special section on The Medieval Turn in Theory, guest edited by Andrew Cole, with essay titles such as “Derrida’s Noble Unfaith,” “Object-Oriented Mythography,” and ” Death and Texts: Finitude Before Form.” Cool, eh?

The beautiful cover image to this issue is a collage called The Holy Mountain by Marcus McDonald.

Thank you Janell Watson and the editors of the minnesota review!

Poet Alessandra Simmons has interviewed me for her series 5 – 9 : Working Writers. You can read the interview here.

Thanks Alessandra!

Nashville Review

Cover by Bianca Stone

I’m so excited to announce that the Nashville Review has accepted one of my poems for their Spring 2013 issue! I have loved this online journal since discovering two poems by Ross Gay (“Grace” &  “Ode to the Flute“) in their fourth issue. I also enjoy the fact that they include oral storytelling, dance, music (e.g. Sufjan Stevens, Andrew Bird, & Efterklang), film, interviews, and comics in their issues, in addition to poetry, fiction, and essays by people such as D. A. Powell, Tyehimba Jess, F. Daniel Rzicznek, Norman Dubie, Naomi Shihab Nye, Blas Falconer, Ben Loory, and Sean Bishop. Thanks Editors Chris Adamson and Cara Dees and Nashville Review!
