My poem "Busking, Providence" appears in the June 2014 issue of Red Booth Review.

So excited for my friend Tory McCagg. Her novel Bittersweet Manor will be released on May 6. Read about it at her website here. She's reading at Books on the Square on May 9 at 7pm.

I'll be reading on Friday, March 7, at the Pawtucket Arts Collaborative as part of the RISCA Fellowship Writers Night. The program is from 6–8pm. I'm honored to be reading with Ifa Bayeza, Samson Jardine, Adara Meyers and Anna Solomon. There will also be musical performances by Kirsten Volness and Paul Phillips.

Two poems just published in Sassafras Literary Magazine, issue 4. Thanks to editor Miranda Holmqvist.
