That’s basically the news. I was notified this afternoon. Spindrift is the art and literary journal of Shoreline Community College, where I studied graphic design a little over ten years ago. (I also worked on the 2008 issue.) A new issue is published annually, usually around late May or early June. You can read the [...]

New music: Bed in which I pretend to sleep, but am really plotting my downfall
(21 March 2019)
Small update, 5 February 2019
Thanks to a long-overdue quiet day, followed by a couple of snow days (including today—the parking lot by my building is still too icy to get my car out to go anywhere), I have returned to working on my next collection of poems. What I have done so far: First, I am almost done going [...]
Latest update 11/29/2018
There have been more changes this year than I was expecting. I’m not quite ready to summarize the year just yet, but suffice it to say that the changes now extend to one of my collections in progress, Straining Against the Margins.

Disorientation (music)
One of those days where I have yet to write anything [okay, so I forgot I wrote something this morning], but I did just release this on bandcamp: (23 September 2018)
Another update 8/5/2018
Well, I did not write anything yesterday (I say ‘yesterday’ even though I haven’t gone to sleep yet)—but I now have a title for my next collection of poems: Straining Against the Margins. This phrase, which came to mind a couple of days ago, captures quite well the year so far—both for me personally and [...]
Another small update 8/1/2018
Pages for the rest of my poetry books are now live. As I mentioned in my previous update, you will now see a Books link in the main navigation menu of the site, with a dropdown menu: The Lilac Years 8: Eight-word Poems This Is Not the Book That Will Save Your Life …but for [...]
Have any? (music)
I have yet to write anything today, but I did just release this on bandcamp: (31 July 2018)
