My partner Justin and I made a website! From the info page:
The Jungle Can’t Happen Here In Wonderland is a digital toy that collages random quotations from three classic works of literature. Each press of the snake compiles a trio of random excerpts, one from Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle (1906), Sinclair Lewis’s It Can’t Happen Here (1935), and Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland (1865), respectively.

I'm so excited to have these poems appear in Evergreen Review! And I'm very grateful to poetry editor Jee Leong Koh for selecting them, especially since they're not, eh, light reading: reproductive rights, toxic relationships, and so on. Read here!
The team at One Art publishes a poem every day - no small feat! - and I was so grateful to be on their roster this past week. The poem is about losing a loved one, having to pass on the news to other loved ones, and having all of it on your mind while you're trying to move forward through time and space. Check it out here & check out the treasure trove while you're there! 🕊️
Many thanks to Ander Monson and the team at Diagram for including my essay-thing, "On Preservation," in the new issue! It's about many things, including cringey youthfulness, Saturday Night Live, and adult-y contentedness. It also incorporates a weird trivia game throughout. Read it here! 💗📺😱🐸
Thanks x1000 to Wendy Wallace and Bess Cooley for including me 'n my poem in the spring issue of Peatsmoke! It's titled "This Has Been a Disaster" and it's short and scary, like when you find someone else's false eyelashes on a table and you think it's a big ol' bug. Read the whole issue here!
Pleased as Punch & Judy to be in today's issue of Wax Nine! Thanks to Sadie Dupuis & team for curating such a fantastic space and for caring about daddy mustaches, l~a~b~o~r, and my heart. Read 'em here ❤️👀🎩🩸
A little birdie brought us the beautiful new issue of Cherry Tree! I'm so grateful to the whole team at the Lit House at Washington College; they do such wonderful work, from the front cover to the last page. My poem is titled "When the Going Gets Tough, We Scream and Scream and Scream," and it appears in their very cool "literary shade" section, edited by Kimberly Quiogue Andrews.
My contributor’s copy of Wild Gods has arrived, and holy moly, it’s such a blazing torch against these 4pm sunsets. Many thanks to the folks at New Rivers Press & to the editors, Joel Peckham & Robert Vivian, for including me in such a beautiful anthology! Click here to find it at a library near you.
Thanks to Isobel O’Hare & the Dream Pop team for publishing these poems! This first one goes out to all the antique marble collectors out there 😹 ✨ Read ‘em here!
So delighted to receive this wonderful new anthology in the mail! Thanks to Diana Whitney for putting together such a gorgeous, necessary, and ambitious book ❤︎ ❤︎ And for including one of my poems in it!
From the publisher:
Created and compiled just for young women, You Don’t Have to Be Everything is filled with works by a wide range of poets who are honest, unafraid, and skilled at addressing the complex feelings of coming-of-age, from loneliness to joy, longing to solace, attitude to humor. These unintimidating poems offer girls a message of self-acceptance and strength, giving them permission to let go of shame and perfectionism.
It doesn’t drop for another week, but preorder info is available via the publisher’s website, here.
Very cheered, amid all this November gloom, to receive my contributor’s copy of Once Upon a Time in the Twenty-First Century: Unexpected Exercises in Creative Writing. It’s so beautiful! Many thanks to all involved, especially editor Robin Behn and my exercise co-authors Luke Percy and Maggie Nye Smith!
I have a seven-panel poetry comic, “Chaos, Quantum, String,” in the newly-released issue of Shenandoah, which is chock-full of wonderful writing. Thanks to Beth Staples, Chris Gavaler, and the entire team for treating my work (and me!) so well :) Check out the issue here! :)
Thanks to Kate Shults at Aquifer: The Florida Review Online for selecting “Of extinction,” a videopoem, for publication. Thanks also to Justin Linton for creating a soundtrack for the piece :) The poem is an erasure of Elizabeth Kolbert’s New Yorker piece “The Lost World,” and it’s about plastic dinosaurs and clouds and climate change and dollhouse furniture and more :) Check it out here!
One of my recent freelance projects. Photo by Jess Whetsel, who commissioned the poster and, from what I’ve heard, organized a fantastic event!
I was so sad to hear that inter|rupture is ending its run, and i'm grateful for the opportunity to have a poem of mine, “Soap Opera,” included in their final issue. Check it out here.
The new Phantom Drift has arrived, and a poem of mine appears in it! Lots of fabulous fabulism in these pages :) Get your copy here.
Excited to be in issue 2 of Mesmer! Thanks to Emma Furman and Sean Pritchard for putting together such a lovely journal :)
