Austin Weekend

This past Saturday I read with Abbey Chung, Ginger Ko, and Victoria Sanz as part of the SUNCHILD Reading Series. Thanks to Blake Lee Pate and Taylor Jacob Pate for putting together such a great reading. Thanks to Meg McKeon for hosting me in Austin. I've done nine events since the release of Inappropriate Sleepover and they have all been really fun. 

Before flying to Texas:

Four Poems Forthcoming in Anthem Journal

I had four poems accepted by Anthem Journal today!

I really like this journal and I really like three pieces they recently published by Nin Andrews. (Of course.)

Two of my poems will be in the summer issue. The theme of the summer issue is "Heat." The other two poems will be in the fall issue. The theme of the fall issue is "Day of the Dead."

I guess if I had to describe the poems forthcoming in the "Heat" issue I would say they are edgy. If I had to describe the poems forthcoming in the "Day of the Dead" issue I would say they are very edgy.

I'm currently reading Flappers by Judith Mackrell.
