Opening Doors to Poems for Animal Lovers

I am excited to open a new door to my poems for animals lovers.

Yesterday I visited the extraordinary Kathy Kieth at Medusa’s Kitchen, daily poetry from around the world (poetry with fangs!), with four poems from my poetry book As Good as Gold: Why, Moon? – Silver Stars – Why, Owl? – White.

My recent short story Take Only What you Can Carry was published on Visual Verse: An Anthology of Art and Words. I wrote this tale in response to the magazine’s visual prompt. The incredible people at Visual Verse liked it and published it in their August 2022, Vol. 09 Chapter 10 anthology. Hurray!
