I have a poem in the anthology On Our Own: Widowhood for Smarties (Silver Boomer Books, 2012) and three poems in the current issue of OVS magazine. I also have poems forthcoming in Poet Lore and in the anthology Southern Ohio Anthology. I’m up in the department’s September newsletter.

An excerpt of my new book Sprung is featured in Extract(s), as well as on the press’s page, and my forthcoming chapbook FIRST WIFE is getting ready to go.

On the first of the month, I read in 100 Thousand Poets for Change with Jeff Alessandrelli, Grace Bauer, J V Brummels, Sarah Chavez, Crystal Gibbins, Neil Harrison, and Kelly Madigan, hosted by Grace Bauer & Rex Walton. I read two poems from GHOST GIRL

and a poem from SPRUNG.

Towards the end of the month, my poem “Ms Behaving” was performanced in Lit Undressed / Omaha Lit Fest in Omaha. Though no video was allowed during the performance, Sally Deskins did a reading of “Ms. Behaving” during their “dressed” performance,

and another performer read my poem “The Purse” that was performed in Lit Undressed in 2011.

My poem “Ms. Behaving” is forthcoming in a LFF feature with photos, poems, and news from the event. I have one other little bit of juicy news to share, but alas, I can’t share it yet. More soon!
