Writer to Writer

Two rounds of good news this week:

I'm excited to be part of AWP's Spring 2015 Writer to Writer program. I'll be mentoring poet and fiction writer Catherine Cryan, who's doing some amazing work at the intersection of science and writing.

I also got a sneak peek at the cover art for No Confession, No Mass today. I can't officially unveil it yet, but I love it. Thanks to all the folks on the design, marketing, and editorial teams at UNP for your brilliance!

Go Ahead and Judge

At long last, I'm allowed to reveal the cover art for No Confession, No Mass:

No Confession, No Mass Cover

Although the publication's still months away, I'm excited to see the book coming together! Thanks to everyone at University of Nebraska Press who worked on the design!

I Can't Tell If I'm a Kingpin or a Pauper

The publication date of my new book, No Confession, No Mass, is only a month away, and to celebrate, I'm giving away books!

Because the seven deadly sins and the seven virtues are a running theme in the new book, I'm giving away seven signed copies of each of my books. The giveaways open November 8th. Good luck!

You've Got Style, That's What All the Girls Say

The fine folks over at Sundress Publications featured some poems from No Confession, No Mass last week as part of their "Best Dressed" feature on their blog, The Wardrobe. This has been--and likely will always be--the only time anyone's awarded me that particular superlative.

Thanks, Sundress, for showcasing these poems!
"Invocation: [Saint] Genevieve"
"Embarrassment: from baraço (halter)"
"A Theory of Violence"
"Ode to the Motorcycle"
"Fishwife"

Like a Disaster, Like Blown-Out Semi Tires

Lincolnites, Omahans, lend me your ears! I'll be in Nebraska for the Prairie Schooner Book Prize Reading and Celebration on Tuesday, March 1. I'm excited to meet Bryn Chancellor, winner of the fiction prize for When Are You Coming Home?: Stories, as well as all the folks at University of Nebraska Press who did such a bang-up job bringing No Confession, No Mass into the world.

If you're in the area, swing by the Great Plains Art Museum and say hello!
