Hello friends,

“The Wild Swans” by Hans Christian Andersen has long been one of my favorite fairy tales.

A brief announcement before I get into today’s post: The paperback of my most recent novel, A Sleight of Shadows, came out a couple of weeks ago.

I was never the sort of kid who got upset about summer reading.

May has passed in both a blur and a pile of books.

About six years ago, an editor sent me a book for a possible blurb.

Is it May 1st?

I have spent the past couple of weeks trying and failing to write something coherent about Sylvia Plath as an influence on my writing.

This is the second in a series of four posts for National Poetry Month.

In honor of National Poetry Month, I am going to continue the tradition I started last year, and do a mini-series of posts on poets and poetry.
