I so much enjoyed being the interviewee of Avital Norman Nathman who offered great questions on strong, powerful women writers and historical figures: “This is What a Feminist Looks Like: Laura Madeline Wiseman” in The Mamafesto. As interviewer, the interview I did with Hyacinth Girl Press editor Margaret Bashaar got picked up by Harriet, the Poetry Foundation’s Blog, which is completely awesome! I’m up in the department’s newsletter for September. I have poems in the current issues of New Purlieu Review, Sugar Mule, Naugatuck River Review, Penwood Review, and Vermillion Literary Project. I have poems forthcoming in Menacing Hedge and Poet Lore, a short story forthcoming in Spittoon, and my book review of Amanda Auchter’s The Wishing Tomb is forthcoming in Prairie Schooner.
My chapbook Farm Hands was just released in a limited edition from Gold Quoin Press.
My full-length collection of poetry Sprung has just been released by San Francisco Bay Press. An excerpt of my book Sprung is in Extract(s).
Finally, check out the amazing art by Megan Sanders for the cover of my forthcoming chapbook FIRST WIFE.
