Delighted to learn that my poem “It’s Something People in Love Do” has been accepted for Terrapin Books’ anthology A Compendium of Kisses, where it will appear along poems by Dorianne Laux, David Kirby, Tim Seibles, Ellen Bass, Alice Friman, Ron Smith, Charles H. Webb, Jeffrey Harrison, Caitlin Doyle, Kurt Brown, Baron Wormser, and Jeanne Marie Beaumont, and many others!
Wonderful to learn tonight that my poems “The Answer the Question in Your Mind Rosemary” and “Lighthouse Lighthouse Lighthouse” have been accepted at Arts & Letters. Here’s a photo I took last summer of the lighthouse on Block Island that inspired one of the poems.
Delighted to receive the news that my poem “I’m Back Here I’m Paddling Too” has been accepted for publication in Poetry Northwest! This will be my second appearance in PN since they were kind enough to publish my poem “We Give Ourselves New Medals (We Give Ourselves a Chance)” back in the winter/spring 2016 issue.
Delighted to receive the news that The Cincinnati Review has accepted my micro-fiction “The Horses Are Ready and They Need to Go” for their miCRo series.
I love what they publish in this series, such as this recent piece, “Any Body,” by Sarah Freligh.
Delighted to receive the news tonight that my poem “Calling For One Another When We’re Right There” has been accepted at The Cortland Review. These good folks were kind enough to have published my poem “Help! I’m Floating!” in issue 46 way back in 2010. My how the winds of time do blow…
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.)
As the snow begins to fall, I’ve received an early present, news that my micro-fiction, “Pushing Through the Cheap Crystals to Get at the Good Stuff,” has been accepted by The Spectacle.
Delighted to receive the news that my poem “As If It Didn’t Need Me” has been accepted for publication at DIAGRAM. This will be the second time I’ll have had work there, since they were good enough to publish two of my collaborative prose poems written with Dustin Nightingale in 2016.
My lyric essay “Root That Mountain” has been accepted for publication at The Florida Review. This essay is from a series I recently completed on the four classical elements. It’s the dirt essay. Yay dirt! Here’s the song that inspired the title:
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.)
