Holy crap! Where has the time gone? It’s already mid-May! April and the beginning of May has been busy, busy, busy between work (of course) and book promoting, I almost don’t know if I’m coming or going…almost.

The month of April held an interview with Poetry Matters Project for National Poetry Month in April, and Five Dreams won First Place for Contemporary Poetry by The BookFest Awards–that’s two awards for this collection! This month also saw me at various book festivals (with a mini-high school reunion to boot! Shout-out to my class of ’89!) as well as an Open Mic in Decatur, GA. The beginning of May did not let up, with book signings in McDonough and Locust Grove. As the school year winds down and vacation keeps calling my name louder and louder, the summer looks bright and full of promise with more signings and events, more fun and adventure. I’m meeting so many nice and interesting people, sharing my writing, and just getting out there. What a joy it is at this stage of my life to be free to do my thing!

Find here some highlights of the past two months, including the interview with Poetry Matters Project–hoping to have many more in the months to come!
