My first-ever food review is published in December 2016’s “Off the Ranch” column in Downtown Zen magazine! I went to Sweets Raku and regret nothing.

What do you do with a shiny new MFA degree?
Take it on the road, of course.

Giddyup & Go: Conferences, Seattle & Reno
___
The past month has been the Month of Conferences. First, there was UNLV’s Far West Popular Culture conference. Then so much traveling: five days in Seattle for AWP, followed by a 7-hour road trip (with three poets, no less) to Reno for UNR’s On the Brink conference. Y’all know I love to see things I ain’t never seen. Highlights include Seattle’s Space Needle & Chihuly Glass Gardens, the drive down the Loneliest Road in America, and Lake Tahoe.

Five [Quarterly] publishes “Love Letter”
My short story, “Love Letter to Lady Lazarus,” was recently published in Five [Quarterly]‘s Winter 2014 issue, available online here.
I was invited to read for the issue’s launch party this past weekend at MiMoDa Studio in Los Angeles, California. It was my first time in California, and it was badass, I must say.
