Woo-hoo, glad I made it as far as I did!

Two poems from my first term at Bennington have been published at Broad! http://broadzine.com/issues/ in their Winter 2013 issue. The poems are Kwaidan and Somewhere in San Francisco.

It’s a little odd for me, as Kwaidan was a poem I wrote when my ex, Matt, and I were still together. I submitted it after we broke up, so I should have been prepared for this feeling, but it’s a bittersweet publication.

I was lucky enough to be accepted for a reading by Woman Made Gallery in Chicago, and to have such a wonderful uncle to donate the frequent flyer miles for me to go to the reading. I read nine poems, and had a wonderful time there.

Here is a photo of me from the reading:
