Dear friends, I received some of the best news a person in my position can receive. No, No, I am not starring in the Space Jam remake, but YesYes Books is going to publish my second collection of poems "Reaper's Milonga" in the fall of 2017! YesYes is an amazing press and you should really check out their catalogue of award-winning, mind-bending, and swoon-worthy authors here. Do yourself a favor and attend one of their readings, buy some books, and then buy mine when it comes out!

I am more than happy to announce that my debut collection of poetry, Peregrine Nation, which won the 2014 Dogfish Head Poetry Prize and was first published by The Broadkill River Press has been acquired by Seattle-based press, Dynamo Verlag. They will be redesigning and reissuing Peregrine Nation to coincide with the release of my second collection, Reaper’s Milonga, out later this year with YesYes Books.
