As the Perseids begin dropping in earnest around us, I’m delighted to announce that two of the collaborative prose poems I’ve been writing with Dustin Nightingale – “Raising the Titanic” and “I Think That Guy Came With a Violin On His Back and Wants To Play a Song” – have been accepted by the online journal elsewhere.

Jumping up and down under the sliver of a moon tonight to share the news that my poem “Otherwise Inexplicable Animation to the Forms Above” has been accepted by the good folks at The Collagist!

Thank you to The Boiler Journal for accepting “Brush Aside the Noise with Locks of Matted Hair” – another collaborative prose poem written with Dustin Nightingale!

Seriously dazzled to have “My Markings Easily Recognizable Even In a Windstorm” and “Sometimes You Walk Around and Get Decapitated” — 2 collaborative prose poems written with Dustin Nightingale — accepted at Horsethief. Yeehaw!

Great big summertime thank yous to the editors of Two Peach for accepting “I Fear We Have Made a Terrible Mistake” — another in the series of collaborative prose poems I’ve been writing with Dustin Nightingale.

Delighted to share the news that I’ve just had two poems accepted for Slice Magazine‘s upcoming Distraction theme issue: “A Recognized Maritime Signal for Distress” and “How Is Knowing That Supposed to Help.” Thank you poetry editor Tom Haushalter!

A great big, dewy-eyed thank you to the editors of Mid-American Review for accepting my poems “One Light in a Field of Other Lights” and “At First It Buzzed Then Even the Buzzing Stopped” and to the editors of Sycamore Review for accepting my poem “It’s Something People In Love Do.” It’s sunny here in Syracuse and the birds in the driveway are singing.

The downside – this is what spring looks like in Syracuse right now.
The upside – thank you to Ruth Foley and the other editors of the Cider Press Review for accepting my poem “But I Live Here (Empty Place).”
And thank you to Ian Haver and the staff of JuxtaProse Literary Magazine for accepting “Gluing the Teapot Back Together Anyway” and “Run for Your Life but Don’t Forget to Tie Your Shoes” – two of the collaborative prose poems I’ve been writing with Dustin Nightingale.
