Current Projects

Fiction
Current fiction projects include a literary mystery of the early 1990s and a novel about a man raised in the circus.
I recently completed a YA dystopian novel manuscript, NEVER HOLD YOUR BREATH IN A MIST.
My linked-story manuscript, THE BONES OF THE MOUSE MAKE THE CAT, takes place across the twentieth century inside, and away from, the community of a small truck circus.
My flash-prose chapbook, Staircases Will Outnumber Us, is available from Red BIrd. For a taste of my writing, please see Selected Writing and my blog.

Poetry
I write poems using constraints and, sometimes, traditional forms. I work on erasures and collaged texts as meditation and reanimation. A chapbook of erasure poems, Trees Full of Walking, is forthcoming from Dancing Girl Press.

The Other Whale
The Other Whale is an erasure made with paint on the pages of a 1942 edition of Moby-Dick from Dodd, Mead and Company. The resulting text is different from the text of By Whale: An Erasure, which you can download for free from my Select Writing page
