(And I have an ulterior motive for the reminder because my poem “Smiling Among Inert Shipwrecks” was nominated.) 😉

Have fun, and thank you in advance if you happen to vote for me! 🙂
I received a nice early birthday present today — my poem “Smiling Among Inert Shipwrecks” was nominated for August 2024 Publication of the Month over at Spillwords Press. (And I am touched that readers responded so favorably to this piece in particular, because I wrote it to honor my late parents.)
As I’ve explained here before, you have to register with Spillwords Press in order to vote. You then have until August 29th to cast your vote here.
If you happen to vote for me, then thank you for your support!
Hey, I got one really terrific early Christmas present — Illumen will publish a poem of mine, “Smiling Among Inert Shipwrecks,” in its Spring 2020 issue. This will be the second time that the print-only publication has featured my work — the first was when Illumen published my “Three Dreamers” set of poems back in 2013.
Illumen is a speculative poetry journal that is released quarterly by Alban Lake Publishing. Its editorial focus is to “describe other worlds in poetic prose, challenge heroes and villains with eloquent words, show the nightmare of real life in all its disgusting mud and muck.” It’s a wonderful place for a writer to see their creative work appear, and I’m grateful to Editor Tyree Campbell for allowing me to share my voice there.
I’m honored to report here today that another of my poems was featured by Dead Snakes.

Once again, thank you to Editor Stephen Jarrell Williams!
