I had the pleasure to read for Justine Chan’s book launch with some freshly written and generated works. Thanks to Ruth for the recording–the blur adds to the drama.
A while back I had the pleasure of interviewing friend and former collaborator Sarah Heady regarding her latest book, Comfort. It’s been some time but Rain Taxi just brought this interview into the open. This is my first published interview in some time so I’m pretty excited about it! Read the interview here.
I first heard Rodrigo do a reading at AWP in Seattle a couple of months ago. Since then, I have had a chance to review his new book, The Cut Point. You can read the review here.
I recently recorded myself reading seven poems from various projects. They are below.
My latest review is now live. It’s my second review in International Examiner, and it was given the title “Poetry collection explores the body’s relationship with the world with surrealism and chilling unease” which I love. Check out the review of Joey S. Kim’s Body Facts here.
I’m excited to be part of my good friend Justine Chan’s momentous occassion: the book launch for her first collection, Should You Lose All Reason(s). It has been a long time coming and it will be good to celebrate! I will read some strange city poems in alignment with some of the city poems in Justine’s book. Common AREA Maintenance in Seattle: April 22, 2023, 7:00pm.
Brandon Rushton’s latest collection of poetry, The Air in the Air Behind It, has been reviewed. You can read the review of this wonderful book at North of Oxford.

Thanks to R.K. for recording the reading this past Saturday at Super Position. Details in the YouTube description.
My first review in the online Hopscotch Translation is now available. I’m excited to announce that a longer review of Tilsa Otta’s And Suddenly I Was Just Dancing is now available. I’m looking forward to more reviews published through Hopscoch down the road, as I continue to be enamored with translation.
My March review for North of Oxford is out. Read it here.
I’m excited to share the flier for the upcoming Super Position reading on March 11, 2023, at 7pm. It will be the second reading I’ve been involved in that streams across two venues, and the first of such that I will be reading my own work at. The two Seattle venues are Casa del Xolo (in Fremont) and Bulldog News (in the U District). I will be tangible at the latter.
