INTERVIEW @ ELECTRIC LITERATURE

Over @ Electric Literature I talked to Latria Graham abt writing Whiskey & Ribbons and Kentucky and and and! 

While reading, I came across the idea of a fugue, a piece of music that intertwines several different voices, some of them repetitious, and then a voice drops out. That’s exactly what I needed to do when I was putting this book together.

W&R AND THE BY AND BY AND BOOK FEST EVENTS!

I got my box of W&R hardbacks in the mail and they are SO BEAUTIFUL! !!!

I am now contributing to Oxford American's The By and By series with a column called THE GLIMMERING HUSH in which I seek quiet in a loud world.

I'll be reading & signing @ Carmichaels in Louisville on March 8! 

Tayari Jones and I will be in conversation with Katia Ulysse @ the Virginia Book Fest on a panel called THREE-HANDED HEARTS on March 24!

I'll also be attending the Greensboro Bound Book Fest in May!

I try my best to keep track of events here!
