Chapbook release in the pandemic

 As my mother used to say, we are in a pickle.

I am coming out of the Covid-19 fog and working to shake off the Ground Hog Day effect. I wake up at 7am feed the dogs and suddenly it is 3 o'clock. 

I am not up to the task of framing this pandemic period. Just wear a mask, honestly, is it too much to ask that we do something for the collective WE.  American individualism isn't serving us right now.

And yet this is the time when my chapbook, Everything reaches out to everything else, is ready for  preorder.  It is a finalist in Finishing Line Press' New Womens' Voices Series for 2019. I am excited that this set of poems were chosen and now that the preorder period is open it is becoming a reality. The preorder phase determines the print run and goes until August 28, the book will come out in late October. 

So, since you are here, why not listen to one of the poems in the collection, Under the Valencia tree invisible to Moselle's family celebration.

Stay safe and aware.
