Poetry/Novel Update

Since this summer, I have had three new poems appear in literary magazines/journals.


“I-spy” and “Child Development” appeared in the Summer 2014 issue of Rolling Thunder Quarterly.
 
“This Life Ain’t Fit for Nobody” appeared in the Fall 2014 issue of The Southern Tablet. Three more poems are set to appear in journals before the end of the year.

“Blonde-haired Blue-eyed Jesus Bobble Head” will appear in the Fall 2014 issue of NYSAI Press.

“Burn” will appear in the next issue of Pamplemousse.

“Mosquito Music” will appear in the Winter 2014 issue of Control.

Furthermore, two more poems are pending editor's approval for two more journals.


This is a fascinating time in my young writing career, but there is much left to accomplish and to achieve. I am seeking to publish a new collection with these and more new poems. In addition, the long-awaited City of David, my debut novel, will finally appear next year (release date pending)--not to mention I have a new novel manuscript that I am trying to remain committed to.  


A big thank you goes out to anyone who purchased The Very Least of Me or who came to my first reading in Sumter, SC, in April this year. My next reading will be on Thursday, November 7, at 7pm at MAD Open Mic in Augusta, GA (307 11th St.) hosted by Catherine Zickgraf.


Pray for me as this word goes forth to the masses. I need your support as I strive for new levels in this craft.
