We Are Billion-Year-Old Carbon

I've been living in Portland all of two weeks now and am still learning how to navigate the city, figuring out how to make my new apartment feel like home, and exclaiming at every unfamiliar flower I find on my evening walks. (Truly. I'm sure the neighbors find it obnoxious, but I can't help it.) Especially since I'm such a newbie, I was excited to be invited to take part in Wordstock, Portland's Book Festival. I'll be giving a pop-up reading among the paintings and sculptures in the Portland Art Museum on November 5th. If you'll be in the area, please stop by and say hello!

Also, I've got new poems out in the world! Shinjini Bhattacharjee, editor of Hermeneutic Chaos, was kind enough to publish two of my poems--both, I suppose, about family--in the September issue. You can check them out on the journal's website, and while you're there, if you've got poems of your own, consider entering the Jane Lumley Prize. (It's free, so why not?)
