I learned yesterday that my first book of poems, entitled Money for Sunsets was chosen by Denise Duhamel for Steel Toe Books' 2009 Judge's Prize and will be unleashed in 2010.
The year 2010 looks space-aged for some reason. It's only next year.
More later!
For now, should you need a brief morning read, I have a new little story up at Juked. Click........ here.
