My first book of poetry, ANGEL PARK, is out this week!
I wrote a little bit about this in English Kills Review. Here is a little snippet:
You see, once other people get their hands my book, it will belong to them. Yeah I know, that is the goal, but I spent so much time wishing and workshopping, revising and trashing, begging and [insert several other steps before the release of a book] that I didn’t consider the ramifications of other people taking my work and making it their own. They can love it. Hate it. Misinterpret it. Use it for the greater good or the lesser of two evils… and I can’t do much to stop them.
Here are some links to get the book if you wanna get all poetic for NATIONAL POETRY MONTH.
