Two of my poems are included in the third issue of Madness Muse Press in some incredible company! You can check out “Is This Homeschooling?” (Everglades facts!) and “Star Wish” (erasure!) along with poems by Jessica Covil, Kai Coggin, Darren Demaree, Howie Good, Jeremy Karn, Connie Post, and more.
I’m so thrilled that EcoTheo Review, which is awesome, published my poem “On the Origin.” This was the first piece I wrote about losing my parents-in-law, and this poem set me off on a new project-in-process that explores trauma and grief, faith and science, and probably other things I’ve yet to discover.
I’m so honored to have my “All the Binding I Can Offer” in the new issue of The Maine Review alongside work by Kelli Russell Agodon, Joe Baumann, & more!
My piece is a love note to a friend, and it lives in the space between lyric essay and prose poem. Click the image above to read it in full.
Last night I was one of the featured poets at Wednesday Night Poetry alongside Carolyn Forché, Ken Hada, and Connie Post! I was so thrilled to get to read from my brand new chapbook, 28,065 Nights, which was just released last week from River Glass Books.
Thanks so much to Kai Coggin for expanding this community and being such an incredible host!
Happy release day! My new chapbook, 28,065 Nights, is officially published, and I’m so grateful to River Glass Books. If you’d like to get a copy of these prose poems that explore storytelling, grief, and love, please visit their website!
My new chapbook, 28,065 Nights, is now available for pre-order from River Glass Books!
This is a collection of prose poems that explore storytelling, grief, and love. I wrote these poems to my Granny after her death, so this book is extra dear to me.
I’m so grateful to Kimberly Dawn and Marley Stuart for making this beautiful chapbook of my poems!
Thank you to the editors of Memoir Mixtapes for re-printing my poem “Ojo Caliente,” which was first published in the American Journal of Nursing. I love that they include a playlist of the connected songs for each piece, so definitely listen along as you read the whole issue!
Thanks to Michael Klam and the rest of the editorial team for reprinting my poem “The Ghosts of Missing Animals” (originally in SWWIM) in Springtime in Paradise, the 27th annual Border Voices anthology! I’m honored to have my work in the company of such talented young poets (and some talented grown-up poets too).
I’m so thrilled to have a poem included in this new anthology, Erase the Patriarchy, edited by Isobel O’Hare. You can order copies now!
What an honor to have my essay “How to Network as a Poet” included in Far Villages: Welcome Essays for New and Beginner Poets!
Edited by Abayomi Animashaun, this anthology includes essays by many poets I already admired and several poets that I’m happy to meet in these pages. Black Lawrence Press is offering 25% off on anthologies through July 31, so now is a good time to get a copy. I’m thankful for this joyful book in the midst of stressful days.
