Last Day of Poetry Month, New Interview, and a Poem in APR - Happy Birthday!
So, it's the last day of Poetry Month AND my birthday - that very last birthday of my thirties. So how should we celebrate? How about some links and news and stuff?
Celia Lisset Alvarez interviewed me over at her blog as her last poetry month feature:

And, the May/June 2012 of American Poetry Review is out, with my poem, "Once Upon a Time," amid some really wonderful writers!
And, one more sticker for She Returns to the Floating World - here it is, all official - it didn't win, but it was a finalist for the Eric Hoffer Montaigne Medal:

A quick recap of some other poetry news of April:
A poem up featured at The RumpusMy third book, Unexplained Fevers, a collaborative book of fairy tale poems with artist Deborah Scott, is officially slated for publication by Kitsune Books in late 2013!"Morning of Sunflowers (for Fukushima)" was a Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg prize winner. So yes, there was lots of stress, job interviews, a large handful of rejections, house-buying business, some health stuff...but all in all, I feel extraordinarily blessed this month and grateful. Especially with my husband baking me gluten-free birthday chocolate souffles tonight!
I also have some other exciting news I can't officially reveal yet. But I promise I will soon!
And, finally, don't forget to leave a comment at this link for one more chance to participate in the great poetry giveaway:
