The Art of Raining is out now!

My newest chapbook, The Art of Raining, is now available for purchase through The Knives Forks and Spoons Press. Click on the link to order. It's on their home page.

The book is going to print within the week, so hopefully the hard copies will be in my hands soon. It's 5 pounds (it's a UK press) or around $8.

I'd be honored if you'll give it a read!

Autobiography of Fever to be published in summer 2011

My experiment with longer poems, Autobiography of Fever, has been accepted for late summer 2011 publication by Bedouin Books as part of their annual poetry series.

I'm particularly honored as Bedouin only releases one chapbook each year.

Bedouin is putting together a launch party, perhaps in September. Details to follow...
