What a warm and welcoming thrill it was to read for the Triple-A Reading Series this afternoon in Binghamton. Thank you Ralph Pennel and the Artisan Gallery for hosting. And thank you to my awesome fellow readers Jenn Powers and Jen DeGregorio. And thank you to the blizzard for holding off today.

Yip-a-dang! Third Coast has accepted my poem "When We Fall Asleep Our Grips Relax!" I received the acceptance last night while reorganizing the bookcase where I keep my contributor copies of literary journals, so...that was a cool coincidence. Thank you Poetry Editors Emily Daniel & Alyssa Start!
