Author's Bio

In addition to Just Married, I have three chapbooks -- Abraham (Sierra Delta Press, 2012), A Bird's Life (Books on Blog #41) and Rhapsody in Blues (Grey Borders Press, 2016). I've also written a book of literary criticism, The Teenage Tarzan (McFarland, 2010).
I founded Pier-Glass Poetry in 2021, an online space for discussing and presenting poetry. I am also the founder and host of the Bridgewater International Poetry Festival. I've been a poet at a number of festivals and readings. I was the poetry teacher in 2014 for the Turner Cassity Literary Festival in Douglasville, GA.
