September 27: Richard Spisak Adds Extra Stone to Stone Soup

Thanks to recent feature Jeff Taylor for getting me in touch with Richard Spisak, whose new book, STONE POETRY (hmm, nice title) is being released this week. It's great to have him feature at the end of September. He's had a long and storied writing career. It will be great for him share it with us at Stone Soup Poetry.

October 4: David R. Surette Gives Stone Soup His Latest Tonic

Of all the south shore friends I made when I started going out reading my work in 2003, David R. Surette has read at Stone Soup Poetry the most. No surprise, given how prolific he's been. It's great to have him come back to Stone Soup virtually to kick off our October features. Every feature, David shares his life story from teaching to caring for horses, from Malden, Massachusetts to the south shore to Cape Cod. It will be great to hear the latest part of his journey. Be sure to order a copy of his latest poetry collection, Tonic.

My Work Accepted for the Upcoming Dissent Anthology

I'm proud to have my work in Dissent: an anthology to end war and capitalism. I'll be joining over ninety other poets in this collection gathered by Mark Lipman and coming out through his Vagabond Books.
Lipman and Vagabond are in the process of raising funds for the book. If you are interested in supporting this publication, please consider visiting the Vagabond Books website and pre-ordering a copy of the book today.
