It's been awhile since I've posted, but I'm pleased to be back online with another exciting publication announcement.

Publication Announcement: Temenos Journal

Read the issue HERE
After some delay, my poem "Chance of Rain" has finally been published by Temenos Journal. You may notice the official publication date of the issue A Balancing Act is Spring 2014, but I assure you, I am sharing it with you as early as I can. Temenos is a journal published by the graduate program at Central Michigan University. As the editor in chief of the Glassworks, the equivalent publication at Rowan University, I'm not stranger to delays. Working with a university publication, especially a small and/or relatively new one, means dealing with funding, budgets, changes in staff, and a host of other likely setbacks. I can relate. And so while I was beginning to doubt this issue would ever see the light of day, I'm glad I waited it out. To the credit of the Temenos staff, I emailed a few times over the last six months to inquire about my poem, and every time someone responded quickly and courteously. I'm pleased to be included in such a lovely publication.

I am pleased to presemt the 10th issue of Glassworks Magazine, a publication of Rowan University's Master of Arts in Writing program. While this is the fourth issue I have been involved with, and my second as Editor in Chief, it is the first issue which was entirely selected and produced by students and faculty under my guidance. We have received so much positive feedback from the authors and artists over the last year, and I expect this issue will elicit even more. The issue came together in such a beautifully coherent way, I would encourage you to read the entire thing, cover to cover. Enjoy!

Publication Announcement: Astronomical Sestina

10/7/2014

1 Comment

 
I am pleased to be included in the final issue of Outside In Travel & Literary Magazine. The poem published here is very dear to my heart, and will be included in my chapbook due out early next year. I am also grateful the magazine has included a photograph of mine from my time abroad in Prague to accompany the poem.

For those of you unfamiliar, a sestina is a particular type of poem dating back to the 12th century that follows a strict formal pattern. In crafting a sestina, the poet chooses six words, called telutons. These words appear at the end of each line in the first stanza, and they repeat as end words throughout the poem for six, six-line stanzas. The poem concludes with a stanza, called an envoi, of just two lines in which all six words appear again. The pattern is typically as follows:

1.  ABCDEF
2. FAEBDC
3. CFDABE
4. ECBFAD
5. DEACFB
6. BDFECA
7. (envoi)  BED CFA

In some modern sestinas, poets may bend the rules just slightly by using homonyms, as you'll see in my poem with the substitution of "our" for "hour" or my use of "less" in compound words such as "aimless" and "soundless." While I am generally not a formal poet, sestinas are a form that has fascinated me for years. I find it an enjoyable challenge, and in a pile of disastrous attempts, I have produced a few sestinas I am proud of this. "Astronomical Sestina" is the greatest of them, and I am glad it has found a home.

Enjoy! :)
