The Poet for Hire Welcomes You

Thank you for visiting my website. I'm always on the search for people who would like to read, publish, or even purchase my work. Maybe you're in one or all three of those categories.
If you wish to know more about me, take a look around. In addition to this website there are links to my social media page. I also maintain a long-time blog here. Oh, and I launched my Patreon Page. And then there's my Bluesky.
I have two collections available: Cant Republic: Erasures and Blackouts and All's Well Isn't You!
