Interview on KFAI's Write On! Radio
Yep, I'm still catching up and updating folks on the goals I conquered while on my extended blogging hiatus.
KFAI is a community radio station in Minnesota. In Fall 2020, I had the opportunity to get interviewed on KFAI's Write On! Radio program, which interviews authors as well as editors, playwrights, poets, and more. The program is interested in everything literary, from spoken word performances to readings by writers to just plain well-written works of art.
I had an absolute blast talking to Dave Fettig about my poetry book Everything Wrong Feels Right, my unconventional background as a writer and poet, my off-kilter piecemeal writing process, and much more. It felt more like an icebreaker conversation than an interview, honestly. I'm crossing my fingers that I can get another chance to appear again on this program.

Finally.
I am so excited to announce that my first book of poetry, "Everything Wrong Feels Right," is now available on Amazon. Big thanks to the folks at Portage Press who got me to this point!
Finalist.
Happy to find out that my chapbook manuscript "The Alter Ego Handbook" has been named a finalist by Anomalous Press for their open reading period!
Now I play the waiting game to see if it gets published...fingers crossed...

Interview at the Spark Wheel Press Blog
I recently had the wonderful opportunity to play question and answer via email…the results of which appear on today’s entry on Spark Wheel Press’ blog.
Spark Wheel Press publishes burntdistrict, a journal dedicated to elevating public awareness of contemporary poetry and to the promotion of writers. I had the honor of having my prose poem Epiphany appear in the inaugural issue of burntdistrict earlier this year.
In the interview I talked a little about epiphanies in writing, my writing process, labels in the literary world, influences and other subjects. Huge thanks to the folks at Spark Wheel Press for the chance to do this interview with them, and to Deanna McElhatten for asking some very thought provoking questions (and for being patient as I crafted my responses).
