New Work in the World!

Dropped November 17: my flash fiction story “Road Trip, 1977” with the beautiful Fictive Dream.

October 2024: Two Microfictions up at Switch: “The End” and “Binti’s Escape.”

Fall 2024’s Whale Road Review includes my prose-y poem appropriately titled “Whales” which has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize.

My poem “Tongues” appears in the brand new lit journal out of Galway, Ragaire (named for the Irish word for someone who likes to wander at night).

Listen to me read my poem “I Tried to Sing to My Mother at the End” on Rhino Poetry‘s Instagram Page.

“How to Love Your Country” was published by Wrong Turn Lit, April 2024.

View Mass Poetry’s poetry & protest video collage where I was one of 16 featured poets from across the state to read Amanda Gorman’s “In This Place (An American Lyric)”  for National Poetry Month 2020.
