COVID, Isolation & Hope: Artists Respond to the Pandemic is now available to order!

Thank you to the editors Rafael Alvarado, Consuelo G. Flores and Richard Modiano for selecting two of my pandemic poems: “What Gives Hope” & “At A Time Like This.”

“A bulletin from the volatile waiting room that is 2020 to now, this anthology trembles with anxiety, anger, sorrow, and—at times—the most bitter pleasure. The writers / photographers assembled here jostle elbows and speak unmasked on pages that fold them into each other’s faces, homes, and grief. It’s a terrible grace that these artists cross such vast social distances to cut so close to the bone, that they set down to reckon with a time many can’t wait to forget.”
