New Workshop In August!

Register for my workshop titled “Self-Discovery Through Poetry” at Phoenix Center for the Arts. It is an online class Tuesdays from 6:00pm to 8:00pm starting on August 25, 2026.

Self-Discovery in Poetry welcomes writers of every background – the seasoned poet seeking new roads to travel, the beginner trying to find their voice, and the curious student simply wondering what this poetry thing is all about. Through prompts, readings, and conversation, we’ll explore how poetry helps us uncover the parts of ourselves we don’t always allow to reach the surface. Together, we’ll discover that poetry is all around us, especially within us, and we’ll practice bringing that reality to the page. By the end of the course, students will: Find comfort with the written word wherever it takes them; Explore how personal experience, memory, and observation can inspire poetic expression; Discover and practice poetic techniques that deepen clarity and imagery; Learn to transform raw thoughts and feelings into crafted language.

Poetry Audio Book

So so so excited to share that my first poetry book, “How I Learned to Learn New Things”, has been recorded as a audiobook by veteran narrator Michael Kramer!!

Michael is an accomplished and award winning narrator with 90+ credits under his belt, including MY favorite Brandon Sanderson series – Mistborn & The Stormlight Archive.

What started as a random tweet turned into an amazing experience working with both Michael Kramer, Kate Reading, and producer Erik Synnestvedt.

Below is the link where you can purchase the audiobook via Awesound! Treat yourself to Michael’s amazing narration of poems incredibly important and personal to me.
