I found out recently that Why Dust Shall Never Settle Upon This Soul has been recognized as a Lambda Finalist this year in the all-new category of Transgender Poetry. That is an amazing honor! Thank you, Lambda Literary. I will be reading at the Lambda Finalist reading on May 24 at the West Hollywood City Hall.

Los Angeles, CA May 24th
West Hollywood Public Library
Council Chambers – Lower Level
625 N San Vicente Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90069
Reading will be in the evening with exact time to be determined.

I found out about all of this via Twitter. Three big takeaways: First, dear new writers, consider naming your book something a LOT shorter than Why Dust Shall Never Settle Upon This Soul for ease of Twitter… Ugh! Second: Wow!  Holy crap!  I have some fantastic company. Third: the wonderful part about these sorts of days is you get to look out and see people you care about creating work that is finding readers. Thank you!
