Cooch Behar Magazine publishes two more of my poems in its anthologies.

I’m so happy to share here that Cooch Behar Magazine in India has published two more of my poems in its anthologies.  My poem “Bumblebee” was included in the publisher’s Afternoon-themed anthology, while “Roanoke Summer Midnight” was included in its Evening volume.  The collections can be found here and here on Amazon, respectively.

Thanks once again to Editor Sourav Sarkar for showcasing my work in its wonderful series of books!

“We’ve got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.”

“Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically. The cataclysm has happened, we are among the ruins, we start to build up new little habitats, to have new little hopes. It is rather hard work: there is now no smooth road into the future: but we go round, or scramble over the obstacles. We’ve got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.”

― D.H. Lawrence, Lady Chatterley’s Lover

(I myself am offthebeatenpath.)

“I’m not a psycho. I’m an empath.”

Me: “You’re a psychempath.”

Portmanteau Nolan strikes again.

Throwback Thursday: College Nolan!

Circa 1992.  With College Girlfriend, no less.

The young lady pictured was always a sublimely cool individual, so I will spare her the ignominy of naming her here.  (We protect the innocent at this blog.)

Thanks to MWC Alum Rick Slagle for the photo!
