So pumped to have a piece published in this upcoming anthology. Keep an eye out for "The Curse of Loess Hills," a micro-story set in Iowa. Thanks to @fobhaiku.bsky.social of Middle West Press for taking an interest in my departure away from poetry for a unique storytelling opportunity.

Today, Dr. Carla Hayden was removed from her position as Librarian of Congress. She was terminated via email. Through the efforts of many in DC and DOGE, our entire Museum and Library system is being dismantled. The image I am most proud of from my art demonstrations at LOC:
