News: Profile in Eye Magazine

There’s a short piece on me in Eye, Toronto’s alt weekly. Aside from one rather large error (can you spot it?), it’s quite a nice, friendly little profile. I read at the Art Bar on Tuesday and it was very successful. I can’t remember the last time I saw a poet sell more than one or two books at the Art Bar, but I sold 10! I’ll be back in Toronto for IFOA in October. If you couldn’t make it out to the Art Bar, and even if you did, hopefully I’ll see you there.

Interview: Inkwell

Interview: Segment on CBC One’s Afternoon Show “Q”

I appeared last week on CBC’s afternoon arts and culture show Q with Jian Gomeshi, as part of an interview about my literary blog Bookninja and my poetry. You can here the interview excerpted in the third part of this mp3 podcast (audio). It was a pleasant experience though we talked much more about Bookninja than poetry, but this is how things go these days.

Interview: Northern Poetry Review

There’s an interview with me up at the Northern Poetry Review. Also in this issue are poems by Brenda Schmidt and an essay by Zach Wells. Another review is upcoming in a future issue of Contemporary Verse 2.
