I've been longlisted for the CBC Poetry Prize!

For the first time, I've been longlisted for the CBC Poetry Prize, for a selection of poems from the manuscript-in-progress, "household items." I'm in good company, too, alongside thirty-five others, including Stephanie Bolster, Sandy Pool (twice!), Bren Simmers, Deanna Young (twice!) and Alison Calder. Apparently the shortlist is announced on September 17, and the winner a week later. Wouldn't that be the finest wedding present ever?
