I have three new poems out. “The Weight of It” from Valparaiso Poetry Review, and “Homecoming” and “Pastoral” from Radar Poetry.
Radar Poetry’s new issue came out only last night, and I have already completely devoured it. It’s a stunning issue, and I’m lucky to have work in it. Every poem is great, but my particular favorites right now are Sarah J. Sloat’s “Indoor Horses,” Caitlin Scarano’s “Mule,” and Megan Peak’s “As Girls–.” But I easily love every one of the poems in this issue. It’s incredible. I have hearts AND stars in my eyes right now.
I also really enjoyed reading the poems in the latest issue of VPR. I especially loved William Fargason’s “What We are Given” and Rebecca Lauren’s “Dearth.”
Probably my favorite part of the submitting and publishing process is finding new-to-me writers to love.
P.S. The beautiful collages accompanying my poems were made by Erin Case. I just ordered print copies of both of them! Her store is here.
