Diary of a Sorceress

I am ecstatic to announce that my debut poetry collection, Diary of a Sorceress, has been officially accepted for publication by Hippocampus Press!  I have written poetry since I was 12 and always wanted my poetry to be the first book I ever publish.  And now I am proud to say that it will.  The publication date is tentative for next year but there are two other poetry collections in the queue before mine.  So we shall see and of course, I will keep updating this blog and my Facebook as soon as I know more.

I have made a Facebook page for Diary of a Sorceress.  I will write fun little tidbits about many of the poems that are already published as well as post various readings by myself and others.

My Copy of the Literary Hatchet #15 Has Arrived!

My poem, Dark Valentine, is in this latest issue.  This is the second time I have been in a Literary Hatchet issue by PearTree Press and I have to say that I quite enjoy being in them.  This issue isn't as jam-packed as the last issue I was in but it still looks like it has a good amount of amazing material.  The artwork, even though black and white, is awesome and both my poems from both issues have had badass background artwork that makes me really proud to have a poem on it.  You can always download these issues and this latest issue for free.  As a contributor, they offer the choice of either getting $5 or a contributor copy.  I have been getting the $5 but I have this need to own a physical copy of what I am in, so I think I will be getting the cc from now on.
