Posted on by

Oh.My.Goodness. Poetry Northwest just accepted my long poem “Bone Above Our Heart” one of the poetic experiments I started 2 summers ago, carrying around a special notebook during my travels, collecting images, bits of overheard dialogue, to build a long poem from (it’s 5 pages, which is long for me). I’m over-the-moon to have this poem appear in Poetry Northwest. It’ll be my third appearance in this awesome journal! Thank you so much Bill Carty, Shriram Sivaramakrishnan, Keetje Kuipers, and everyone at PN!

Wow!! Blackbird just accepted my poem “Birds and Stars Suite.” This is one of the long poems that I’ve been writing since the summer, and it’s a great shot in the arm to have this validation of my new experimentation. Thank you thank you thank you to Caroline Richards and everyone at Blackbird! This will be my second appearance in Blackbird, and I’m celebrating as jubilantly as that first one!
