Writing year in review: 2014--not bad!


8 acceptances (individual poems)
1 individual poem awarded, 3rd place.
2 chosen as readers’ favorites (#1 and #3)
1 chapbook runner-up award
1 chapbook accepted (20 poems)
1 Pushcart Prize nomination
1 interview to be published (for Arte Latino Now, at Queens College at Charlotte)

I am most pleased with the Readers' choice and Pushcart nomination!  

Fall was slow, but things picked up in the Winter:

"Nothing in the Dark" a poem inspired by the eponymous classic Twilight Zone episode was published by FLARE: the Flagler Review, Fall edition, page 39.

And "Late Bloomers" was just chosen to be the poem for May in the Writer's Rising Up 2015 calendar.  

The calendar will be available to download for free in January: Digging to the Roots .
