Couple of new and fun announcements today.
First, I've been selected as a member of the Launch Team for Not All Who Wander (Spiritually) Are Lost, by Traci Rhoades. I've interacted a lot with Tracy over the last several months on Twitter and she is a kind and ardent seeker. I'm excited to get my hands on an early copy and to do my part to make sure everyone has a chance to learn about her work. Search #notallwhowanderbook on Twitter for recent news. Thanks, Traci!
Three of my poems - "Ladder of Loss", "Hopeless Cases", and "Shelter" - have been picked up for publication in Deep South Magazine for April. I really love the poems, and I'm so happy they've found such a great home.

Been writing a lot of poetry lately. Read Mary Oliver's The Poetry Handbook and finally gained a sense of how to write poetry consistently and well. Memory Eternal!
One of my recently published poems is up with my commentary on the Bacopa Literary Review's Blog. The poem is one I think Ms. Oliver might enjoy, as she seemed to share my fascination with all kinds of birds. Have a look:)
I also received an acceptance to publish my non-fiction "Rejects and Relics, the Recycled and Revered." This is one my favorite recent pieces wrestling with the question of what is really meaningful in life. It will be out in The Purpled Nail in April.
Also, my crazy story "You Were Her Neighbor", which came out in print in the fall, is now online at The Sandy River Review.
I am proud to announce that Noah, my eldest son, has received his first publication. His poem "The Right Ingredients" was published in Issue #100 of Amazing Kids! Magazine. Great work, buddy!
My response in the "Why I Write" section over at WriteOnFightOn is up. Go check it out and take in the wise reflections of Jay Armstrong. I am grateful you thought of me, Jay. Keep up the good fight!
