Reading in Hartford on March 5

On Sunday, March 5, I’ll be reading with Brian Clements at The Charter Oak Readings, a new series put together by poet Jim Finnegan. It should be a great afternoon of literature. Here’s a link with more details.

2016 Roundup

Well, 2016 was a pretty crummy year, overall, but I did write a bunch of stuff that people were kind enough to publish, so I am grateful.

Here’s a quick rundown of the past year.

Stories: 4 stories were published this year, all in bucket list journals. I had a piece in StorychordCoriumand two in Hobart

Book Reviews: Lots and lots of anonymous reviews once again at Publishers Weekly (I’ll never tell!), as well as stuff in The Georgia Review, Vol. 1 Brooklyn, Kenyon Review, Cleaver Magazine, The Northwest Review of Books, Electric Literature, and, of course, Numéro Cinq.

Essays: Two essays this year: one at 5×5 and the other, a more academic piece on Paul Auster, walls, and Donald Trump, at Vol. 1 Brooklyn

Already have one story lined up for 2017 publication, so hopefully that sets the pace for a more productive year.

Until then…

Spooky Time

My second story to appear at Hobart, “Did You Hear That?,” is now up and available to read. It’s a rather humorous tale of the murderer hiding in your basement. Kinda. You’ll have to read it to see what I mean.

A little update

I have a couple of new book reviews out in the world. For Cleaver, I wrote about Donald Quist’s essay collection, Harbors, and at Electric Literature, I have a piece on Melanie Finn’s new novel, The Gloaming.
