2 Poems Accepted at Sixth Finch!

Delighted to receive the news that my poems “And Can Digest as Much” and “Craters the Naturally Forming Basins” have just been accepted at Sixth Finch! It’s so great to have work forthcoming again in one of my favorite journals–they were good enough to publish my poem “The Sweet of Being Made Right” in the winter 2016 issue.
(I thought I’d post the photograph that inspired one of the poems, from a weekend Adirondack cabin getaway last winter. You’ll have to imagine the sound of massive trees popping in the frigid cold yourself.)

“Yesterday I Saw a Small Snake Holding Still” Accepted for The Massachusetts Review

I’m thrilled to share the news that my poem “Yesterday I Saw a Small Snake Holding Still” has been accepted for publication in The Massachusetts Review! I thought I’d share the photograph that inspired the title–a small ringneck snake I encountered on the Onondaga Community College campus last autumn. (Apologies to any ophidiophobics out there.)

“Shelter Awhile” and “Smell of Wet Earth Like the Inside of My Hands” Accepted at Colorado Review

Huuuuuuge thanks to the good folks at the Colorado Review for accepting my poems “Shelter Awhile” and “Smell of Wet Earth Like the Inside of My Hands” — the latter being one of the very few sonnets I’ve ever had survive into a final draft. So huzzah! This will be the second time my work has appeared in the Colorado Review, since they were good enough to publish my first lyric essay “Go Ahead and Stay Right Here” back in the Spring 2014 issue. So double thanks and huzzahs!
