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!

Painted Bride Quarterly Print Annual 6

Today I received my contributor’s copy of Painted Bride Quarterly Print Annual 6, and it’s a 420 page delight. It contains 2012’s Issues 84-87 of the online journal, including my two poems “This Year Will Be Your Last” and “On Top of an Already Losing Personality” which appeared in Issue 85 (currently unavailable as they’re migrating their content to a new website).

The amount of fine literature in this annual is silly, really, with tons of works by the likes of Matthew Rohrer, Major Jackson, Kathleen Graber, Doug Ramspeck, Mary Austin Speaker, and David Trinidad, to name but a few. You can grab a copy for $15 from the PBQ website.

In the meantime, here’s a picture of Chris Cooper (yes, that Chris Cooper, Academy Award winning actor who played John Laroche in Adaptation, etc.) holding a copy from this year’s AWP. Nifty, eh?
