Loved being able to read a "call and response" at FIX Poetry with the amazing Elina Petrova!!! This reading included poems from our recently published books: my own Azaleas on Fire and Elina's Desert Candles.

Thank you to this amazing community! I am overwhelmed with gratitude! -- and based on the crowd that filled River Oaks Bookstore, I am pretty sure that the Fire Marshall has now issued a warrant for my arrest.  But more importantly, ​Azaleas...  had record sales on her first day out of the box!
       I am proud to be able to donate one-hundred percent of the proceeds from Azaleas On Fire to the Houston Foundation for Literacy. In memory my mother, who gave me my first poetry book when I was just four years old, I am "paying it forward"... because magical things happen when you read to a child!!!

I am extremely honored to have been nominated for this year's Puschart Prize in poetry by the editors at Ocotillo Review and Kallisto Gaia Press.  Thank you so very much to Tony Burnett and his staff for their esteem and recognition.

Warmest thanks and appreciation to the editors of New Plains Review.  Their editors selected my poem, "Winter Solstice," to appear as a lead submission in their upcoming poetry anthology.
