I feel like the world must not be such a terrible place since there is an anthology called The Museum of All Things Awesome and That Go Boom. I’m pleased that my poem “Baba Yaga’s Answer” will be reprinted in it! You can check out the book launch site and buy a print or e-book copy at the link above.

I’ve been writing a series of prose poems to/about my Granny, and “28,065 Nights” was the first one of them to be published. The title refers to the number of nights my Granny was alive. These poems are hard to write, but I need them.

This whole Arabian Nights issue of NonBinary Review is really wonderful. I’m so glad it’s available online now! Check out the poems by E Kristin Anderson, M. Brett Gaffney, Sarah Ghoshal, Jen Stein, and more!

Happy Leap Day to me!

I came home to two publications in the mailbox. My poem “Waking on Palm Sunday” is in the new issue of The Cresset.

My poem “Before Breakfast,” which I wrote in response to the photo “Sunflowers” by Debarshi Ray, was published as a broadside by Black Orchid Designs (ELJ Publications).

Thanks, editors!

I just got to read through the new gender issue of Stirring: A Literary Collection​, which includes my poems “Sex & Santa” and “What to Expect.”

Thanks to M. Mack​ for guest editing this fantastic issue! I’m thrilled to be in such good company. I was especially blown away by Molly Gaudry​’s nonfiction piece “You Know You’re Adopted When.” Check it out!

My poem “Thirteen Blackbirds Looking to Do Something New” is reprinted in the latest issue of The Wallace Stevens Journal. It was originally published in Bigger Than They Appear: Anthology of Very Short Poems from Accents Publishing.

As of today, I’m the featured poet of the month at Negative Capability Press! They’ve included a couple of poems from The Gospel of the Bleeding Woman. I’m honored!
