I’m honored to be reading with the charismatic Raina Leon and Tereza Kramer this evening at Alley Cat Books. Join us at 6 pm for wine, cheese, and poetry in this gorgeous Mission space! I will be reading poems from my two forthcoming chapbooks, thanks to Dancing Girl Press and Beard of Bees, who will be releasing my work in late spring/ early summer. I hope to see you there!

Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any suggestions for inexperienced blog writers? I’d certainly appreciate it.
