I am honored to be named a River Heron Poetry Prize finalist for 2026. Special thanks to Final Judge Alison Tanik for her glowing and insightful review of my poem "Instagram Posts for My Father."
I only wish that my father were still alive to share in this honor and to read this poem inspired by his childhood story.
The poem and Judge Tanik's review are available here:
