Hi, friends, thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy the writing you find on this blog.
The moment I learned to read is still etched in my mind, and I’ve been avidly consuming books and the dreams they hold ever since. Writing, too, has been part of my life since I learned to hold a pencil and make those letter shapes myself.
I am revising my first novel, currently titled Hyssop Hill. My first poetry collection, Economies of Gratitude, was published by Penumbra Press in 2007. Other poetry, short fiction, book reviews, creative non-fiction, and academic essays have appeared or are forthcoming in various journals. Visit my Publications page for the latest news.
I hope you’ll stick around for a while. Please leave comments on my posts, contact me through this site, or use the social media icons to connect.
