Being a poet & an athletic dude who loves sports, is a trip. Sometimes I just want to talk about plate approach, & 99% of you on my TL are like “What’s the meaning of life???” “Death is encroaching” “Cut the comma?” “Cancel the unicorn!” 🙄 This is what you look like to my son & I. Chillllll…

Looking to take on another client or two. My rates are fair and turn around time is solid. Just had a great time working w/Matthew Feinstein and his beautiful book.

A couple days ago, I found out Quiver was long listed (top 20) for the Kate Tufts. This comes on the heals of being named a finalist for the California Book Award. The 18 months this book has had is pretty incredible.
Next: Distributary.
