Yip-a-dang! I’m delighted to share the news that The Laurel Review has accepted three of the collaborative prose poems I’ve been writing with Dustin Nightingale: “Our Dust Collection in Great Demand,” “I’ll Wait Here In Steam I Make Myself” and “We Come from the Orchard Eating.”
What a delight to learn that the mighty Broadsided Press is going to publish an anthology of their first 15 years of poetic and artist collaboration (felicitations!) AND to learn that it will contain the broadside of my poem “Stop Doing That” which they published back in 2012, illustrated by the amazing Amy Meissner. Huge thank you to Editors Elizabeth Bradfield, Miller Oberman, and Alexandra Teague!
You can read/print the original broadside for free HERE.
After a little hiatus on our poetry collaboration project, Dustin Nightingale and I started back up earlier this year and what a thrill it’s been to have had 4 of our poems accepted at 2 journals over the last week! I posted yesterday about The Rupture. Today we learned that New South has taken “Like a Fist Next to Your Heart” – one of my personal favorites. Maybe someday someone will want our book manuscript?! Huge thank you to Caroline Chavatel and the crew of New South!
Delighted to learn that The Rupture has accepted three collaborative prose poems I’ve written with Dustin Nightingale: “A Mushroom Now and Then Pushing Through the Needles,” “Taking One Spoon of Earth,” and “Wispy and Withstanding Storms.” Huge thanks to Marielle Prince and the rest of the good The Rupture people!

As the temps drop into the single digits here in sunny Syracuse, I’m warmed by the news that my poem “The Effect Lasting Half a Minute” has just been accepted at Barrow Street! Huge thank yous to Michael Broek and the other Barrow Street editors and readers. This poem’s inspired by, among other things, pumpkin pie, whipped cream, and an episode of the “In Our Time” Podcast about Feathered Dinosaurs, in which we learn the evolutionary function of the wishbone.
I’m thrilled to share the news that West Branch has accepted three of my poems: “If Alone Has a Flavor,” “Quartered Suns” and “That’s Me When That’s You”! Massive thank yous to Joe Scapellato and the rest of the crew of West Branch! It may be gray as all get-out here in Syracuse, but today things seem bright. 🙂
Delighted to receive the news that my poems “Black Bean Sauce” and “Like a River Stood on End” have been accepted at Cherry Tree. Huge thanks to James Allen Hall and the rest of the Cherry Tree crew!
My hands are shaking as I type this. The American Poetry Review has just accepted my poem “We Couldn’t Be More Biological.” American Poetry Review. I’m still shaking.
