Greetings. I hope spring is blooming beautifully for everyone. My spring is looking very busy! Oh, National Poetry Month… you’re like Christmas for poets… but you last 30 days! As usual, National Poetry Month is shaping up to be very busy. And it’s doubly crazy-joyful because Your Casual Survival (my new book) is being published in April. Now, it’s time to get the word out.

If you’re interested in the cover art for the book, it was done by Amy Casey. She is awesome! The cover is absolutely gorgeous. You can learn more about Amy at her website here. Amy also provided artwork for the most recent Neko Case album, Middle Cyclone. And this is awesome because Neko Case is amazing. Also, Amy was recently featured on the cover of New American Paintings.
