NEWS:

Thank you to the California Book Awards for selecting Mortal Geography for this year's award! And thank you to the NEA for a 2011 Poetry Fellowship, which allowed me to take the spring and summer off to write. I'm now happily settled in Moscow, Idaho, where I'm the new Assistant Professor of Poetry--teaching Modern Poetry and Beginning Poetry and continuing to work on my second manuscript.

Mortal Geography was reviewed on The Rumpus and appeared on Ron Slate's "Nineteen Poets Recommend New and Recent Titles."

Check out cool new art and poems at Broadsided, the wonderful poet Elizabeth Bradfield's project, for which I became an editor last year.
