If you haven't heard by now - I'm happy to announce I'm the newest board member for @harlequincreature! Harlequin Creature is a non-profit small press imprint that creates hand-made periodical publications, chapbooks, broadsides, postcards and other publishing projects, and hosts literary events and workshops throughout the U.S. It is dedicated to projects featuring works of translation and woman-identifying writers. As a writer who has a love for the art of bookmaking and the process of writing and printing texts, I am excited to join the press' board and help it grow! #harlequincreature #presses #books #publishing #writers #authors #literary

Today was great! Had an awesome reading with @pam.laskin and #ZahuraAkter at @thecitycollege! Thank you @harlequincreature and Pam for the opportunity! Our mostly student audience was fully engaged and it was great to see younger people (I feel old) still interested in poetry! And to finally see my chapbook in full form and thank you Meghan for putting it together and for another journal for my collection! #poets #poetry #readings
