My book Meteor, which
won the Gival Press Award for Poetry,
and was orginally scheduled to be published in late 2018, has been delayed
slightly; it will be out in early 2019.
I’m thrilled to see the cover, designed
by Kenn Schellenberg, and to announce that Meteor which will launch at
the Associated Writing
Programs Conference in Portland, Oregon this March. If you’re going to
conference, come on by my reading which will be part of Gival Press’ 20th Anniversary
Celebration, and also to my booksigning the following day in the AWP Bookfair
(details below).
Visit
Meteor’s webpage here. All of the
poems in Meteor have been published, but only a few are online, among them: “In the Garden
of Lope de Vega,” “Stay
West” and “Bank.”
I’d be the first to say many of these poems could be considered flash fictions, and in fact, a number of them were originally published in literary magazines (e.g., Exquisite Corpse, Gargoyle, Kenyon Review), as fiction. But as I like to say, it’s all poetry– or at least, it should aspire to be.

Yep,
I am still at work on the book about Far West Texas. I aim to post a podcast
apropos of that shortly, however next Monday’s post– the month’s fourth– is
dedicated, as ever, to a Q & A with another writer: David A. Taylor, who
will be talking about his intriguing Cork Wars.
