| Introduction | I am the author of two fantasy trilogies, four poetry books, and five poetry chapbooks. I’ve been lucky enough to win a number of awards over the years including the James Wright Poetry Award, the Liam Rector First Book Award, the Laureate Prize, the Whirling Prize and five chapbook prizes. My most recent poetry book is What To Do If You’re Buried Alive (Split Lit Press) and my most recent fantasy novel is The Dragonward (Red Adept Publishing). My stories, poems, and essays have appeared in Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine, Ploughshares, North American Review, River Styx, Rattle, Brevity, Orson Scott Card's Intergalactic Medicine Show, Rain Taxi, and many other journals. I’ve also been a Creative Writing and Composition teacher for about twelve years (hence all the gray hair), and I’ve been the Poetry Editor of Atticus Review since 2011. In my free time, my addictions include caffeine, weightlifting, comic books, getting into fruitless political arguments, and the History Channel (except for that crap about Ancient Aliens).
