Spine-tinglingly thrilled to receive the news that The Los Angeles Review has accepted my poem “Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators in the Mystery of the Rest of Your Life.”
It’s October and my book, If We Had a Lemon We’d Throw It and Call That the Sun, is 6 months old! *whistles and noisemakers* Grab the cinnamon and cloves, put some cider on to mull, and snag your copy from Amazon, Small Press Distribution, or get a signed one directly from me!
Yip-a-dang! I’m delighted to share the news that The Laurel Review has accepted three of the collaborative prose poems I’ve been writing with Dustin Nightingale: “Our Dust Collection in Great Demand,” “I’ll Wait Here In Steam I Make Myself” and “We Come from the Orchard Eating.”
I made this short video of me reading my poem “We Might As Well Be Hovering,” with accordion accompaniment by my partner Sarah. I’ve also posted it on my YouTube page. Thanks for watching! You can find the poem in my new book, If We Had a Lemon We’d Throw It and Call That the Sun (Elixir Press, 2021).
After a morning’s poetry writing among the mosquitoes, it’s time to say goodbye to Journal 112, hello soon-to-be 113!
The University of Arizona’s Poetry Center has just published an in depth interview with me about my second book, If We Had a Lemon We’d Throw It and Call That the Sun! Thank you so much Jon Riccio for the wonderful questions! Get ready for: quasars, black bears, Three’s Company, Mole people, The Denial of Death, Cab Calloway, naked hijinks, a laundry dryer that plays Schubert, a writing prompt, spelunking, Otis Redding, etc…. I hope you all can give it a read!
My awesome partner’s awesome short story just got nominated for Best of the Net by Guesthouse! Congratulations sweetie!
What a delight to learn that the mighty Broadsided Press is going to publish an anthology of their first 15 years of poetic and artist collaboration (felicitations!) AND to learn that it will contain the broadside of my poem “Stop Doing That” which they published back in 2012, illustrated by the amazing Amy Meissner. Huge thank you to Editors Elizabeth Bradfield, Miller Oberman, and Alexandra Teague!
You can read/print the original broadside for free HERE.
Three collaborative prose poems that I wrote with Dustin Nightingale just got published in the new issue of The Rupture (formerly The Collagist). Thank you so much to Gabriel Blackwell, Marielle Prince, and the rest of the good folk at The Rupture!
