My two books are about to launch, and I want to keep you apprised of where I will be to celebrate their arrival and meet folks who share my love of language, plants, animals, and this glorious, beleaguered planet we call home. I believe art and science can work together to create a sense of connection and belonging in a world riven by hostility and violence. You can read my new essay “Mobius: A Meditation on Art and Science” out in the Winter issues of The Georgia Review that teases out this idea. Or join me here as I launch this new Substack.
My new poetry collection launches March 4th.
And my edited anthology launches April 1.
