June News

Hello, friends! I hope your summer is going well. I’m pleased to share my June author news with you.

First up, my seasonally-appropriate poem, “A Feast for Mosquitoes,” appeared on Duane’s PoeTree Blog. All poetry listed on Duane’s PoeTree Blog will still be available for viewing, but going forward, he has moved to Duane’s New PoeTree at: https://duanesnewpoetree.blogspot.com/

Many thanks to Duane for his continued support of my work.

The inaugural edition of Total Eclipse also came out to read this month, and is available to read online. My poems, "Canada Geese" and "The Riddle of the Bees" on page 32. I’m so po proud to be included next to so many fine poets. Big thanks to editor Mark Sepe for making this happen!

I was interviewed by fellow poet Thomas Scott Outlar on his Blog Talk Radio show, Songs of Selah. A recording of the interview is available, if you want to have a listen. We discussed my new poetry book, Requiem for a Robot Dog (Cajun Mutt Press), and I read some pieces from it. In the second part of the show, poets call in and share their work, and Duane Vorhees read from his collection, Love’s Autobiography (which I reviewed here).

If you're a poet or author in need of exposure, I strongly encourage you to check out the show. The open mic segment is a great opportunity to share your work with the world. 

And finally, poet Christine Tabaka gave The Ice Dragon a five-star review. Thank you so much, my friend! I am always thrilled and humbled when someone enjoys my work. (Like most authors, I am always in need of reviews of my work. If you would be interested in a review copy, please let me know, and I’ll hook you up.)

Thank you, as always, for reading! I look forward to seeing what July will bring.
