Twitterpated

On New Year's Eve, I celebrated a mini-milestone: 5,000 followers on Twitter. The goal with my Twitter account has been to share news and about books, poetry, music, film and the occasional breaking or political news. Tomorrow night, Jan. 5, I'll co-host the first #poetparty of 2014 with fellow poet Deb Ager. We get underway at 9 p.m. EST, so follow the hashtag, bring your poetry resolutions for the new year and join us as we remember late poet Shann Palmer.

I'm continuing to record poems from Render as part of ongoing project at SoundCloud. Here's the latest – "Parallel Lines." You can hear all of the poems I've recorded so far (including some with musical accompaniment by the brilliant brokenkites) at this link.
