Reviewing proofs for my upcoming poem in The American Poetry Review!

Thrilled!!! to review proofs of my poem “We Couldn’t Be More Biological” which will appear in the January issue of The American Poetry Review!!! Wow!

I never know what I’m going to write about when I write my poems. I sure didn’t know this love poem would be inspired by a couple creatures peeping out from the middle of a 4 hour NOAA deep sea science expedition video, which is the kind of thing my partner and I like to watch late at night with the lights down low…

Reviewing American Poetry Review proofs!

That little yelp of joy you might have heard just now was me, sorry, going through the proofs of my craft essay, “On Giving Up: Its Uses and Benefits in the Writing Life,” which will appear in The American Poetry Review‘s July/August issue. Even typing that out I still can’t believe that it’s true. Sigh… I’m getting ready to give a yelp again. Sorry. 😀
