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.
