I am humbled beyond words to find out that my début full-length poetry collection, Fractures, has been named the winner of the 2022 Independent Author Network Book of the Year Award for Poetry!!
After nearly three years of submitting my manuscript and 33 rejections, I never could have imagined that it would be celebrated in this way after finally getting published: winner of 5 book awards, a finalist for 5 others, and nearly finished with our third print run.
I cannot thank each and every reader, librarian, high school teacher, professor, critic, and blogger enough who has lifted up my book and continues to champion what I do.
