An alumnus and good friend of mine is helping to organize a party at the Pomegranate Gathering Place at 106 Stoney Battery Road. Details are below; you can buy tickets right here.

Just FYI, if you’d like to keep track of my mad scribblings, I started a new page here at the blog for 2024 poetry and commentary.

Impspired in the United Kingdom released its 13th volume today, featuring three of my poems: “At the Coffee Shop,” “Autumn Girl” and “A Poet’s Short Note to His Muse.” (These pieces were previously published online in Impspired Issue 26.)
You can purchase a paperback copy of Impspired Volume Thirteen right here over at Amazon.
As always, I am grateful to Editor Steve Cawte for allowing me to see my work published by such an outstanding literary magazine!

Courtesy of my dear friend Anna, who sent me this neurographic painting. Neurographic art is a meditative process in which artists channel their subconsciouses to create.
Thanks, Anna! Your painting now has a permanent home upon the Wall of Important Keepsakes.
