One of My Poems Wins a Pushcart Prize

I’m pleased to announce that my poem “The Pause Between” was selected for a Pushcart Prize and will appear in Pushcart Prize XLIX: Best of the Small Presses (2025 edition), Pushcart’s annual anthology scheduled for publication on Dec. 3, 2024. In my advance copy, the poem appears on p. 119. It’s very cool to share company with the likes of poets Diane Seuss, Danusha Laméris, Charles Simic, Donika Kelly, and Gregory Pardlo.

The poem, from a 2023 issue of Deep Wild: Writing From the Backcountry, (my thanks to Heidi Blankenship, the poetry editor there) can be found in my third collection, Reincarnation & Other Stimulants, available on the BOOKS page of this web site or wherever bibliophiles roam when they need more books.

 

Go Deep! Go Wild!

Deep Wild

If you’re a FB person, I invite you to visit Deep Wild Journal’s Facebook Page, where they featured my poem “Thoreau Knows” yesterday to commemorate Henry David’s 203rd birthday.

The poem will appear in the print journal, Deep Wild: Writing from the Backcountry, the 2020 issue, which is scheduled to be released any day now. As I say of any journal that publishes my work, buy! I put my faith where faith is put!

So go ahead, FB types. Do some good for the little guy (Deep Wild Journal). Read their FB page. Endorse it. Then read it and, if you’re a writer and a lover of nature, submit to it for its next issue.
