It was an honor to talk about @jordoisdead’s visually, textually, poetically stunning The Place of Scraps with Al Filreis for ModPo. Thanks for great questions that engaged me even more deeply with it. I hope I did right by this book & poet I deeply admire. Get a copy Talonbooks.

For the new issue of The Improbable, I wrote about Barbara Stauffacher Solomon’s transition from dancer to designer to installation & book artist, suggesting we read her in a lineage of visual and concrete poetry. Thanks to Siglio Press for the chance to talk to a living legend!

Thrilled and grateful beyond measure to be included in the new issue of Snail Trail. The excerpts from W/\SH, my speculative ecopoetic collaboration with Terri Witek, couldn’t ask for a better first home.

This collaboration with Terri Witek was more than 7 years in the making and was radically transformed by parenthood and pandemic. Thank you, Rob, for publishing part of our speculative ecopoetic manuscript W/\SH in your amazing chapbook series!

Welp, she just started scribbling with a ballpoint pen and said “Mama, look at all this poetry I am writing.” If you need me, I’ll just be picking my heart up off the floor.
