This coming Saturday,
July 20, 7:00 PM at East End Book Exchange (in Pittsburgh, PA), I will be part
of a Hyacinth Girl Press poetry reading – also featuring readings by Sally
Rosen Kindred, Daniel M. Shapiro, and one or two others TBA.

Speaking of Hyacinth
Girl Press (which published my poetry chapbook, Thirteen Designer Vaginas in
2011 – and yes I will be reading two or three Designer V’s during the poetry
reading this weekend, noted above), it is now official (in a darkly delicious
sort of way) that press has accepted another chapbook of mine for publication
in their 4th year – MUTANT NEURON CODEX SWARM, a collection of collaboration
by me and Robert Cole, coming your way in 2014!
I am very excited and
delighted to be a part of this group of five women and three men, in Hyacinth
Girl Press’s 4th year of publication:
Lisa Marie Basile - war/lock
Dan Nowak - the hows and whys of my failures
Caitlin Elizabeth Jans - Incident Reports
Amorak Huey - The Insomniac Circus
Risa Denenberg - blinded by clouds
Juliet Cook and Robert Cole - Mutant Neuron Codex Swarm
Laura Madeline Wiseman - His Late Wives

Speaking of 2014
excitement, I don't usually like to focus on feeling overly excited about
things way in advance, because then my excitement tends to lead towards
unfocused freaked out nerve blobs, making it harder to concentrate on the here
and now - BUT having said that, I will make a little exception for a few minutes
here.
I'm pretty darn excited that 2014 will MY FIRST TIME EVER ATTENDING AWP AND HAVING A TABLE THERE - and sharing table space and poetry love with a number of other extra-special poetry women. My Blood Pudding Press with The Rooster Moans splitting table T3 – Hyacinth Girl Press with Menacing Hedge splitting table T4 – Dancing Girl Press with Misty Publications splitting table T5! YAY!

In other exciting
news, my hair got dyed red today (an “INTENSE MEDIUM AUBURN” called “CHERRY
CRUSH” – thanks Mom!).
(and i might like an alcoholic beverage called cherry crush)
(and I will save my
one little sad spurt for the comments section)
(despite all the good news, at times I feel like even though I really try hard to stay on top of all these different things, I can never do enough to seriously satisfy myself OR ANYONE ELSE and maybe I should just take it down a hundred notches if I’m not satisfying ANYONE ANYWAY)
