Delighted to receive the news that my poem “As If It Didn’t Need Me” has been accepted for publication at DIAGRAM. This will be the second time I’ll have had work there, since they were good enough to publish two of my collaborative prose poems written with Dustin Nightingale in 2016.
My lyric essay “Root That Mountain” has been accepted for publication at The Florida Review. This essay is from a series I recently completed on the four classical elements. It’s the dirt essay. Yay dirt! Here’s the song that inspired the title:
I’m thrilled to share the news that my poem “Yesterday I Saw a Small Snake Holding Still” has been accepted for publication in The Massachusetts Review! I thought I’d share the photograph that inspired the title–a small ringneck snake I encountered on the Onondaga Community College campus last autumn. (Apologies to any ophidiophobics out there.)
Huuuuuuge thanks to the good folks at the Colorado Review for accepting my poems “Shelter Awhile” and “Smell of Wet Earth Like the Inside of My Hands” — the latter being one of the very few sonnets I’ve ever had survive into a final draft. So huzzah! This will be the second time my work has appeared in the Colorado Review, since they were good enough to publish my first lyric essay “Go Ahead and Stay Right Here” back in the Spring 2014 issue. So double thanks and huzzahs!
Thrilled to receive the news that my poem “If We Had a Lemon We’d Throw It and Call That the Sun” has been accepted at Gulf Coast.
Last night I received the delightful news that three of my poems — “In Small Significant Ways We Are Horses,” “To Keep At Least Partially In the Air,” and “We Are Many People Some Okay” — have been accepted for publication in Alaska Quarterly Review! I celebrated by baking a potato at 1:30 am and watching The Man with the Golden Gun. Made sense at the time
I’m delighted to share the news that my poems “Sunsets Like Strobe Lights” and “That’s Why They Invented Cheesecake” have just been accepted at The Carolina Quarterly!
Happy Labor Day everyone. I’m delighted to share the news that my poem “I Smell the Dirt All Around Me and Above” has been accepted for publication in Pleiades!
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!
My poems “On a Foreign Planet Surrounded by Sugar Maples” and “Bats and Applesauce” have been accepted at the North American Review!
