Hey, all. Dana Gioia and Best American Poetry 2018 have a trailer for their new volume.

Can you find my name (there among names like Mary Ruefle!!!!!!!!, Kay Ryan, Marie Howe!!!!!!!!!!!!, Kaveh Akbar, A R Ammons, Gary Snyder, Frank Bidart!!!!, Terrance Hayes, Ilya Kaminsky, Amy Nezhukumatathil, Sharon Olds, GC Waldrep, Natasha Trethewey, etc etc etc.!!!!!)?

And for those of you in New York City, there's a reading to launch the volume, at the New School on 9/20. I can't be there, and am really sorry about it. If you can go, please do!!!!

Bilingual Childhood Cento

Thanks to editor Richard Krawiec at One for publishing my poem Bilingual Childhood Cento, alongside work by David Kirby, Barbara Crooker (who, by coincidence, is the source of one of the lines in my cento!), Joan Colby, Debra Kang Dean, & Lauren K. Alleyne.

Two Poems at Posit

I'm positively thrilled to have two new poems up at Posit, thanks to editor Susan Lewis. They are "Postcards from Insomnia" and "Gabriel's Horn." If you have a moment, please check them out, and also poems in the same issue by Laurie Kolp, Matthew Cooperman, Elizabeth Robinson, Adam Day, and more!

Cento at Thrush

Friends, I have been obsessively writing (assembling perhaps is a better word) centos this summer. My first one is now at Thrush Poetry Journal, Dementia Cento. Thanks, Helen Vitoria, for believing in this form.

(And if you are not sure what a cento it, here's a discussion.)

Visit Ghost Town

Hey, all, Ghost Town Issue 10 (from CSU San Bernardino) is out, and I have work in it, alongside many super poets, including Craig Santos Perez, Kristin Bock, Judy Kronenfeld, Suzanne Lummis, Stephen Massimilla, Hedy Habra, Elizabeth Knapp, and so many more! Thanks to editor Chad Sweeney for including my work in all this gorgeousness.
