Welcome to my new website, courtesy of a 2024 Minnesota State Arts Board Creative Individuals
grant and IBe! I am grateful to finally have my content all in one place. Feel free to explore!

Upcoming Readings:

• As part of the Cracked Walnut Poetry Festival “Expressions!”, poets/writers from Writers for Democratic Action will read works speaking out on political, social, and cultural occurrences in our country. The reading will be held at the East Side Freedom Library, 1105 Greenbrier St., St. Paul, MN on September 18, 7:00-8:30 p.m. Participants include Diane Jarvenpa, Michael Kleber-Diggs, Margaret Hasse, Donna Isaac, and myself.
• I will be performing on Friday, September 26th at 7:00 p.m. with the Sonoglyph Collective at Zion Community Commons, 1697 Lafond Avenue, Saint Paul. There’s a suggested 15.00 at the door donation. If you have not experienced our extemporaneous jazzy blending of poetry and music, please join us! The show is all ages.
• I will be part of the Midstream Poetry Reading series on Thursday, October 9th at 7:30p.m. at Unity Unitarian church in Saint Paul. Line up of authors TBA.

Community Workshops:

• I won’t be teaching any community workshops this fall, but I will be offering poetry workshops this winter at Write On, Door County and The Loft Literary Center. Stay tuned for registration details.

Thanks for reading and welcome again to my website!
