One small giant leap for poetry, fiction!

Three poems published in Gently Mad literary magazine

Three new poems of mine have been published in Gently Mad magazine’s third issue.

One of them, “Leaves Imprint,” is a tribute to my father. “The Light Inside” is about mental health. The third poem, “Small Stone Man,” is about a miniature inukshuk that sits on my desk.

You can find them online at this link as well as more information about how to order the print edition.

Music is a theme in all three poems, as it was in my book Stories in the Key of Song (Black Moss Press, 2024). I just can’t get the music out of my head.

I will be reading from my work at Indigo in Tecumseh on Saturday, Aug. 23 between noon and 3 p.m., along with other contributors to the issue. There will also be a book launch at the same location on Friday, Aug. 22 between 4:30 and 7:30 p.m.

If you can make it, I would love to see you.

Thanks for reading.
