I’m so honored to have two micro poems published in The Offing, and two poems published in Beltway Quarterly. I love both of these publications, and Beltway Quarterly in based in Washington, DC, near where I grew up and spent my formative years being inspired by amazing poets I’m now lucky to call my friends.
