The Shivering Ground & Other Stories

Earth Song Is Here!

I started this anthology in 2020, and it took two years to get all the permissions.

It's so wonderful to finally have it out in the world!

Lots of poets you might recognize (like Neruda, Berry, Merwin, Hirshfield) and many in translation, and also a nice collection from up-and-coming poets!



You can read more about the anthology, here. Plus, write a nature poem if you like.
