Two-Part Interview

Hello all,

It seems like I've been everywhere but here lately. Mostly I've been re-writing and preparing one MS for publication this summer, and my first novel for publication next year. As I get ready for my summertime USA trip--stay tuned for reading dates to celebrate the new book, Poison and Antidote, a collection of 9  Bohemian tales of San Francisco during the bleak Reagan era--I've been guest blogging and getting interviewed by the fabulous Ela Vasilescu, a Romanian-born Florentine Writer of enormous talent. It's a long interview (I'm old!) but there's a treat at the bottom--just like in a box of colorful and sugary kid's breakfast cereal: a video Dorin Vasilescu made for my poem "Fires on Monkey Island." At last, all of my secrets revealed! Enjoy!

Apology

Asked to write something about myself as a writer by the Creative People in Florence group I came up with this apology of sorts. It explains my history as a writer and why I chose to self publish.

(It also includes some visual/textual collaborations with photographer Debra A Zeller.)

I got interviewed by THE FLORENTINE, one of Florence's English-language monthly papers--twice!
