Hello All. My second book of poems was released by Yorkshire Publishing. The collection titled Complexions of Being provides a poetry sample written from 2019 to 2022.  My poems have also appeared in the PoetrySoup anthologies, Diverse Voices: The Poetry of Human Rights and the Pursuit of Peace, PS: It's Poetry, and  PS: It's Still Poetry. Other poetry credits include Dissident Voice, Pick Me Up Poetry, The Magnolia Review, The Opiate Magazine, and Tuck Magazine. My poems have won awards in recent Poetrysoup poetry contests.

Over several decades, my poems were published in numerous small-press journals. Through Black Buzzard Press, I published my first chapbook of poems, Native Steel, in 1982. I have also written and published short fiction. Over the years, my stories have appeared in The Lake Superior Review, Intuitive Explorations, Baltimore's Lite Literary Magazine, and Alien Skin.  Feel free to contact me if you would like further information.
