"A SINGLE STREAK, PURE WHITE OF SKY" : Verse magazine blog

My poem, "A SINGLE STREAK, PURE WHITE OF SKY," from the "household items" manuscript has been posted on the Verse magazine blog. Thanks!

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?
