Celebrating an Acceptance and My Friends' Books Out This Month
So happy to get an acceptance from Fictive Dream for a micro triptych. Look for it in November!
Also I want to shout out books written by my friends that are out this month:
Ani King’s Family Night from Mason Jar Press! Here’s what I had to say about it -
“Mercurial and mellifluous, ecstatic and ephemeral, FAMILY NIGHT will carry you in the backseat of a 1976 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, through the labyrinth of the Minotaur, on the wings of a wasp-mother, through town on a porch pontoon as Ani King unravels, unveils, unfolds the lives of the liminal, the tangible and intangible who find themselves in the in between spaces, on the edges, and in the seams.”
Claudia Monpere’s The Periodic Family from Cowboy Jamboree! Here’s what I had to say about it -
“Spiral deep into this nebula of stories bursting with the cosmic dust of love and loss, longing and letting go. In The Periodic Family, Claudia Monpere performs a skillful sublimation, transforming you with each story, from a woman whose punishment is losing her sense of touch, to a houseless mother holding on to her children's shark toys, from a proliferation of purple to the balm of beige, each narrative, each character, each color, each word will carry you along, like a snow melt, like a firefly's flash, like a lullaby.”
Hope you pick up your copies of these wonderful books!
Not much going on with me this month (other than my birthday on the 3rd and my anniversary on the 31st), so as always, sending light, love and creativity to you all.
