North Tama Telegraph--an unflagging supporter of the arts in North Tama County--put out an article this week about my recent award, with a really kind mention of one of my recent songs. You can find the article here.

Iowa Music Awards!
Things have been so crazy lately that I haven't been able to really pay attention to social media. But I did have a little time to check in this afternoon, and at the top of my inbox was my friend Jesse Cotton, congratulating me on winning “Poet of the Year.” This is easily one of my favorite surprises ever.
Thanks to Nicole Salis for producing the winning performance, to Matthew Anderson and Jardéz Hollingsworth for accompanying, and the Cedar Falls Community Theater for giving poetry a stage.
Open Mic in Reinbeck - May 24th
A friend of mine connected me with a new bar in Reinbeck (Surly Steve's, formerly the 405) looking to start an open mic night. Of course, I jumped right in. :)
So, you coming?
Cup of Joe!
Cup of Joe in Cedar Falls is launching a new poetry open mic series, and last night was the first installment. I wish I had pics and video of all the poets, but to be honest I was too much in awe of the wordsmithing that was going on to even think about pulling out my phone.
Lindsey did manage to get some pics of me, though. So for posterity…
March 7!
Workshops!
This one might not qualify as “latest” press, but I've been asked a couple times recently about poetry workshops. Click here for an article put out by the Wyoming Arts Council a while back describing one of mine.
