“I think these poems are what a soul assembling itself sounds like. They are ramps of energy, they are martyred and murdered efforts, they are alive and playful and full of verve and dead serious biting me with their French-tipped teeth.”
—Darcie Dennigan, author of Madame X
Hello!
I’m a poet, writer, book editor, and herbalist, and for many years I co-ran a picture book press called Penny Candy Books. I’ve published a lyric memoir called Head Case: My Father, Alzheimer’s & Other Brainstorms and two books of poems. My new book, Agatha, is coming in October!
My poems and essays have appeared in Arts & Letters, Bennington Review, Carolina Quarterly, Chattahoochee Review, Conduit, Denver Quarterly, Gulf Coast, Massachusetts Review, Mid-American Review, Prairie Schooner, and elsewhere.
I’m currently writing a book about herbs for emotional support. When I’m not writing, you can find me digging in the garden, playing mad scientist, walking three dogs, reading a scary novel, or trying to make my cats like me.
