Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 11:11AM I'll have new poems appearing in upcoming editions of HEART, Exact Change Only, Talking Stick, Working Title Two, Switched-On-Gutenberg, and Poetics Noire in the near future. The drought is over. Details forthcoming.
Wednesday, June 24, 2009 at 07:14PM Issue #5 of The Whitefish Review is out, and chock full of amazing art and writing. The Whitefish Review is a literary journal based in Whitefish, Montana that publishes fiction, non-fiction, poetry, art, photography, and interviews, with a slant toward mountain culture. 
My poem The Nostalgia Soundtrack is lucky enough to be in this issue - and considering the amount of revising this one poem has survived over the years, that is something for me to celebrate with a beer or two. Big thanks to editor Brian Schott for the chance to contribute.
Publications Saturday, June 13, 2009 at 09:27AM So I fell off the grid for a moment, but I should be back here on a (fairly) consistent basis.I just hit one of those patches of life where other things were a bit more important than blogging.
But not everything has been at a standstill. Although my free time has been at a premium, I’ve still been writing and submitting whenever possible. One particular poem of mine, All We Ask For, has recently garnered a hint of success.
All We Ask For recently won the Fifth Annual Skysaje Enterprises poetry contest! Big sloppy thanks to the judges for choosing my poem for this award and also to Lawrence R. Berger, managing coordinator of Skysaje Enterprises, for this great contest opportunity. All We Ask For will make its print debut later this year in an anthology titled Working Title Two - I'll post more information when I have it.
I better run and take this opportunity of Saturday morning free time to get some writing and errands done. Be good…
Tuesday, March 31, 2009 at 03:44PM I have four new poems online at Foliate Oak, the online literary magazine of the University of Arkansas at Monticello. The poems are called Hardheaded, How a Man Becomes a Comma, Placebo Effects, and Undone. Click here to read them, and then click here to peruse the other fine literary works Foliate Oak has to offer. Big thanks to the staff of Foliate Oak for giving me the chance to contribute.
Publications Monday, March 23, 2009 at 08:31PM I have two poems in the Spring 2009 issue of MO: Writings from the River. The poems are titled Where We Find Truth and Runaway. This is the last year this journal will be published under this title; it will undergo a fashionable name change to The Front Range Review. I'm sure it will continue to be a quality publication dedicated to publishing an interesting mix of established and emerging writers.
I also just received word that my poem Expecting will be published in the Spring 2009 edition of Oracle, the literary magazine of Brewton-Parker College in Mt. Vernon, Georgia. I am happy to have the chance to contribute - a big thank you to editor Rachel Allen.
Hopefully this is the sign of things to come. You know, publications and acceptances and stuff like that.
