More media this week...it's my first review! I don't even know how to summarize and explain this, but my wife grew up in what is essentially America's first subdivision. They have a weekly sub newsletter. A neighborhood resident reviewed my book. This is very cool and a huge honor, for real.

Welcome to the club, Kevin, we're thrilled you're here!
Big news. "It's Easy To Lose Your Breath" has been picked up by Match Factory Editions @matchfactoryeds.bsky.social! This is now my debut full-length, out in May! I'm beyond excited to share this book with you! I hope to share news about my ex-ELJ book soon, but there's good news on that front, too!

Similar to Mitchell, I feel like if you're not crazy about me (Sneža) or my poetry, you will nonetheless love the MFE poets I love!

@mitchnobis.bsky.social kept describing this @matchfactoryeds.bsky.social collection as "poems about basketball," which does not nearly do it justice

Shout-out to @matchfactoryeds.bsky.social. Love having a publisher who hustles on the author's behalf!
Hey Michigan friends, do you have any indie bookstores you'd recommend I try to get this puppy into?
I wrote a book of poetry. I think you'll like it. Regular readers of poetry and people who haven't read any since school* have both told me they liked it. Thanks!
