I’m delighted to share the news that my poem “The Shape the Air Makes Between Us” has just been accepted by North American Review. Thank you J D Schraffenberger and the rest of the NAR crew! This poem mentions the amazing sculpture from 1993 “House” by the amazing artist Rachel Whiteread. She filled a three story house with concrete then removed the house part.

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…

Colorado Review has accepted my poems “Night but Unlike Night” & “Peel the Black Walnut Bark like Small Fists in our Fists”
On my birthday yesterday, one of my very favorite journals, Colorado Review, accepted my two poems: “Night but Unlike Night” & “Peel the Black Walnut Bark like Small Fists in our Fists.” What a treat! CR has published two of my poems before, as well as a creative nonfiction essay, and it’s a journal I hold close to my heart. Thank you Matthew Cooperman and everyone at CR! These two poems are particular favorites of mine, and at the center of the developing manuscript of my third poetry book. I’m overjoyed they will appear in Colorado Review!

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. 😀
