I received some really nice news this morning — my poem “Smiling Among Inert Shipwrecks” has been selected for the upcoming Gathering Poetry Anthology.  The anthology is being developed by Local Gems Press (which I was surprised to realize today is actually based on my native Long Island, New York.)  Gathering is also being created by Poets Anonymous, which has provided a venue for poets since 1991.

This is a wonderful opportunity to share my voice; I am grateful to James P. Wagner, Publisher of  Local Gems Press, along with Lesley Tyson and Megan McDonald at Poets Anonymous.
