On the occasion of publishing a poem this month in the fabulous River Mouth Review, I realized I needed to update my Poems page with a number of online publications. It is now up to date with links from the past year or so. Reading the other writers in these magazines is always an amazing reminder of why we do what we do. There are so many amazing voices out there, writing vital words, fighting to be heard amidst all the noise. Hasn’t it always been that way? Yet the current firehose of (mis)information can make it seem all the more overwhelming.
Find yourself a good book or a good literary magazine and take a break from all the hubub. It’s not escapism; you will return with renewed energy and insight.

I am a poet, translator, and professor of literature and creative writing at Mississippi University for Women, where I direct the Low-Residency MFA in Creative Writing, the undergraduate concentration in creative writing, and the Eudora Welty Writers' Symposium. I am Chair of the Department of Languages, Literature, and Philosophy, and I have published four collections of poetry, Tree Fall with Birdsong, Barrier Island Suite, Time Capsules, and Landscapes and Architectures, as well as a collection of translations of the Belgian poet Paul Snoek, Hercules, Richelieu, and Nostradamus, and the textbook A Writer's Craft: Multi-Genre Creative Writing. I was born and raised in Osage, Iowa, and have lived for over thirty years in Columbus, Mississippi, where my wife Kim and I let wildflowers grow in our yard to the delight of spring polinators and only some of our neighbors.
