I’m so excited to announce that the Nashville Review has accepted one of my poems for their Spring 2013 issue! I have loved this online journal since discovering two poems by Ross Gay (“Grace” & “Ode to the Flute“) in their fourth issue. I also enjoy the fact that they include oral storytelling, dance, music (e.g. Sufjan Stevens, Andrew Bird, & Efterklang), film, interviews, and comics in their issues, in addition to poetry, fiction, and essays by people such as D. A. Powell, Tyehimba Jess, F. Daniel Rzicznek, Norman Dubie, Naomi Shihab Nye, Blas Falconer, Ben Loory, and Sean Bishop. Thanks Editors Chris Adamson and Cara Dees and Nashville Review!

Toad Suck Review, the literary journal of the Department of Writing in the College of Fine Arts and Communication at the University of Central Arkansas, has just accepted five poems from a series of collaborative prose poems I’ve been writing with the poet Dustin Nightingale. Previous poems from this series have been accepted by Yemassee (19.2) and Beecher’s (forthcoming). Thank you Editor Mark Spitzer and Toad Suck Review!

I just received the wonderful news that my poem “Back From the Edge of Hunger” has been accepted for publication in the Fall 2013 issue of Third Coast.
My three prose poems, “Only Better (Black Moths),” “Thomas at Home in the City,” and “If You Must Know” have been accepted by the exquisitely beautiful Paper Darts. They were chosen by guest editor John Jodzio, author of the short story collections “Get In If You Want To Live” and “If You Lived Here You’d Already Be Home.” Thank you Paper Darts and John Jodzio!

My poem “Apparently, I’m Not a Joiner” has been accepted for publication by the online journal B O D Y.
If you haven’t yet, you should check out the great poetry, prose and media they publish — such as these selections from Daniil Kharms translated by Ilya Kaminsky and Katie Farris.

Beecher’s magazine has accepted for their next issue a collaborative prose poem from a series written with my friend the poet Dustin Nightingale. This is the second of our collaborations to find a home. The first was published in the recent Yemassee 19.2.
Beecher’s magazine is “published annually in Lawrence, Kansas and run by the students of the graduate program in creative writing at the University of Kansas.” It warms my December in Syracuse heart to have a poem in this gorgeous new journal published by my former school KU in the town I lived in for ten years. Thanks Beecher’s!
I am overjoyed to share the news that Salamander has just accepted one of my poems for their Summer 2013 issue.

To my delight, in the last week I have had two poems accepted by The Bakery and one by The 22 Magazine Blog. Autumn is good.
