This was Trinity last Friday, after performing the poem, "The SSSnake Hotel" by Brian "Spike" Moses in front of all the 4th graders and parents. Quite the tuckered out hipster. Am I proud? Am I proud?
My work has appeared in The Other Journal, Kairos (Mars Hill Fellowship), Kaleidoscope: a yearly anthology of Montana Writers, in Fire Magazine and in Vain Magazine. Additionally, my book length poetry collection entitled, "Jacob Wrestling" was a semifinalist for the 2005 Dorset Prize from Tupelo Press.
I received my M.F.A. in Creative Writing at Goddard College in January of 2005, and was formerly the English Department Chair at Mount Bachelor Academy in Central Oregon. I was also the founder and editor of our school’s online literary journal, "The Ochoco Review" http://ochocoreview.blogspot.com
I now teach both High School and College Level English Literature and Writing for the Crook County School District.
