Milwaukee! May 30th! A launch for an anthology set in the world of a new game by Anvil 8 Games. My story is about a strong-headed young man who loves his toy collection. His in-laws assert he is too old for toys, so they demand he sell them. Hilarity ensues! Magic! Come see us May 30th!
There are 18 nominees in the Poetry Full-Length Book category for the Georgia Author of the Year awards, and Hail My Attention Kindly, my most recent book published last year by @salmonpoetry.bsky.social , is one of them! It's rubbing shoulders with some pretty cool books by some pretty cool poets.
