I had two very different poems published today, both of which may be read online. An astronomy poem, How to Observe the Horsehead Nebula, appeared in Uppagus #40, June 2020, and Midnight, a poem from my epic fantasy The Sign of the Dragon, appeared in Instincts #7, June 2020.
Two of my poems from The Sign of the Dragon will be reprinted in Instincts.
I’m interviewed by Carrie Gessner in the latest Positively Pop Culture podcast. The first part of the podcast is an interview with poet Erin Carlyle, and then in the second part I babble away about “The Sign of the Dragon” and “Elemental Haiku.” To find the episode, click here.
I’m very happy to report that I’ve had another poem accepted by Fantasy & Science Fiction 🙂 🙂
I just had two poems — “Harold and Kate” and “How to Tidy the Asteroids” — published in the 2020 edition of Rune Literary Journal.
Two publications. One new, one old. My poem “First Contact” is in the May/June 2020 issue of Fantasy & Science Fiction. And I’m nearly a year late realizing this, but my poem How to Honor Sirius appeared in Eternal Haunted Summer last summer.
My poem Ford has just been published in Heroic Fantasy Quarterly. N.B. “Ford” is one of the longer of the King Xau poems from The Sign of the Dragon.
My first ever Goodreads giveaway started today. I’ll be giving away five copies of the print edition of The Sign of the Dragon.
My poem William Carlos Williams’s Cat has been published in Uppagus, my 47th poem to appear there! 🙂
Signed print copies of The Sign of the Dragon may be bought from Phantom of the Attic in Pittsburgh (411 S Craig St 2nd floor, Pittsburgh, PA 15213).
I was delighted to discover that The Sciku Project just reviewed my book How to Navigate Our Universe 🙂 The review may be read here.
Brandon O’Brien, Poet Laureate for the upcoming Seattle Worldcon, asked me about speculative poetry. You can read the interview here.
