I'm excited to have two virtual readings coming up in early 2021.

In January, I'll be reading in the Sewanee Writers' Conference virtual reading series, and in March I'll be reading for the Hudson Valley Writers Center with Aaron Caycedo-Kimura, in celebration of Aaron's chapbook, Ubasute, which will be published by Slapering Hol Press early next year.

Please see my events page for my details. Hope you can join us.
