I am happy to report that Catalina is one of five poetry books short-listed for top book of 2011 by the Independent Literary Awards! 

Indie Lit Awards Short List

I was nominated for an Independent Literary Award for my poetry book, Catalina.  If you wouldn't mind, please add your nomination, as the top-five vote getters in each genre are then eligible for the award.  Thanks!

December 15--my friend Jill's book group read Catalina and invited me to their monthly dinner to discuss.  It was wonderful!

Welcome to my blog!  Catalina has been out for several weeks and is selling briskly.  Readings coming up in November and January!
