My books and where to buy them
For your consideration as we enter this holiday season (and beyond):
Here is the updated list of my books and purchase links. The Amazon listings usually have a decent preview of the print editions. Check them out, yo.
Additionally, because the full-color edition of This Is Fifty-three and Coffee Stains are available through IngramSpark, you should be able to have your local bookstore order copies, if you prefer to shop local.

I’ve gone too far to turn back now (music)
I started on this piece a few weeks ago (its components were recorded earlier this year), before being distracted by finishing This Is Fifty-three. Well, I finally got around to completing it this afternoon…

This Is Fifty-three: Just the Words, Man—Published!
The Just the Words, Man edition of This Is Fifty-three is now available!
For now, you can find it at CreateSpace; it should be listed on Amazon within the next few days.
I have also made a proper page for both editions of the book on my website:
https://www.kevinjoconner.com/this-is-fifty-three/.
The full-color edition is still in the proofing process; I am expecting the printed proof tomorrow, and hope to have everything wrapped up this week. More news when it becomes available. Stay tuned!

Poetry Marathon 2016: My recap
Yesterday, I participated in my first poetry marathon. Well, technically the half marathon. Twelve new poems in twelve hours. This morning, I’m very tired.
The whole exercise was deceptively difficult—not that I thought it would be so easy, but when I sit down with my big sketchbook to write, I often will write three or four poems at a time, taking maybe twenty minutes or so. That’s what I was thinking would happen when I signed up. Continue reading

Twelfth poem of the day. I followed the prompt, which was to write a poem using at least five of the following words: moon, lake, glory, jeep, breastbone, spare, canopy, panic. This means I am officially done with the half marathon. Depending on how I feel after I come back from tonight’s reading, I may try to add a couple more. If I don’t, good night! Continue reading
