Listen to me and Dustin read our poems in The Bear Review (with piano accompaniment)!

Howdy! Listen to me and Dustin Nightingale read our 3 collaborative prose poems in Bear Review with awesome improvised piano music by my partner Sarah! Thank you to the whole Bear Review crew for sharing this, and thank you especially to Marcus Myers for your generous words about our audio.

“Look! Fruit!” in the new Bat City Review!

Thrilled to receive my contributor copies of the new Bat City Review, which contains “Look! Fruit!” one of the collaborative prose poems I’ve been writing with Dustin Nightingale. There’s so much literary awesomeness in this gorgeous issue! Massive thank yous to Luci Arbus-Scandiffio, Sarah Matthes, and the whole BCR crew!

“Like a Fist Next to Your Heart” accepted at New South!

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!
