The good folks at Blotterature Literary Magazine have posted the first review of my upcoming poetry collection, The Blood of a Tourist. The book will be released on Nov. 4 and is not yet available to pre-order, but don't worry, when it is I'll be sure and remind you of all the nice things they said about it

They also posted an interview, and, most importantly, a picture of my cat.

Quiet Lightning, Monday Sept. 15

I'm honored and excited to be reading at the Sept. 15 Quiet Lightning. We'll be meeting at Lands End to watch the sunset and then the reading will commence at a nearby location. Sounds like a magical evening in the making. Please join us.

Words Dance # 17 is now live.  They've seen fit to include three of my poems, and each piece is accompanied by an audio file, which I think is pretty neat.  Please indulge.

Hello, dear readers.  If I still have any readers.

I plan to update this blog on a more regular basis, really I do.

For now,  here's footage of my recent reading at the Bernal Yoga Literary Series in San Francisco.

More soon.
