The Border Beats: Writing Across Boundaries anthology is now available for purchase. It includes my poem, “Confiscated.” Thank you to editor Belinda Subraman.
 

APPEARANCES

I was one of the featured readers at the September Speakeasy event at Swordfish Tom’s in Kansas City. Thank you to everyone who attended, to fellow feature Iris Appelquist, to host Brandon Whitehead and to the excellent people at Swordfish Tom's for providing such a great venue to poets.
 
The September SpoFest event was canceled due to one of the hosts being ill. We are planning to reschedule – I will keep everyone posted when we have a new date set.

This Saturday, September 30, is the Poetry Jam event in Independence, MO. There will be open mics in the evening. I will be attending, so looking forward to connecting with regional writers!
