If you’ve stopped in on my poetry blog from time to time, you already know that I post poetry submission calls and poetry prompts, but what else could you be missing? I’ve added a new Blog Tour page that describes how to quickly find anything and everything poetry! From my “Where to Submit” lists, to poetry prompts, to other online writing resources, and my favorite poets writing today.

And of course, you can follow me on Facebook, Twitter, and WordPress to make sure you never miss an update!

Here’s what’s in my Blog Tour:

Welcome!

I’ve been posting poetry related information on my blog almost daily since October 2014. Below is a summary of the types of information I post, where, and how to access it quickly. If you are looking for information on how to write, publish, or participate in the larger poetry community, please contact me here and I’ll do what I can to find the info and share it in an upcoming post.

Here’s how to find what you are looking for…

MAIN MENU –  at the top of the page includes the obvious stuff:

Poetry – a list of my published poems and links so you can check them out.

Chapbooks – the two chapbooks I’ve published and links so you can read them.
