Things


There is a review of my chapbook, “He Is Talking to the FatLady” over at Rumble.  It is reviewed by JA Tyler.  JA Tyler says some nice things.

Remember when this chapbook sold out in less than two days and you couldn’t snag a copy?  Well, that problem might be able to be solved for you shortly. (that is a hint of things to come!)


Today, I am finally published in Everyday Genius.  I love Everyday Genius.  But until this final attempt, it seemed Everyday Genius didn’t love me.  Now they love me. Or at least this little story.  It’s called, “Things You Find on a Train” and you should read it here.


Lastly, Ani Smith has been posting some beautiful things about Very Beautiful Women over at We Who Are About To Die.  Ani Smith was one of those beautiful women and this is what EYE have to say about her piece in Very Beautiful Women:

"There is so much here. So much. A bouquet of images. 

I am here.  Have been here. Have been there inside of these words, busting them out.  Myself.  A yearning to communicate by touch minus skin.  Many times I could’ve fallen, cracked my head on the pavement and out would’ve spilled this poem.  But instead, I lick it off the shoes of this American girl in London.  Tell her I like it.  Look up at her like, believe me.  A plead in my eye. She looks back, holding my eyes with hers, communicating nothing. Holding me there.

The same way she does with this.

Read those words again.  How she knows what she wants.  Can tell it to us.  Draws it for us on our screens, on our souls.  Makes us live it.  This is what these types of words are supposed to do and she does. 

I let her crumple me up in her fist.”





That is all i have to say about that
