Thanks to J.P. Dancing Bear for interviewing me on his NoCal radio show, “Out of Our Minds.” The podcast is now available here! I read some poems from The Robot Scientist’s Daughter, we get into a digression about Bladerunner, and I talk a little about my experience with California libraries.
And thanks to Kelli Russell Agodon for making a little summer postcard of one of my poems from Unexplained Fevers, “Sleeping Beauty Loves the Needle.” If you like it, you can order the book from me here or from Amazon.
It has been too hot to be very productive, like, nineties every day, no chance of rain hot. We’ll be crispy by July 4 at this rate! Doesn’t Seattle know I moved here for the cloudy cool June days? But I did get one review written, a new poem written, and I’m working on a handout for the PNWA conference coming up! It’s just been a tough June personally, and I’m hoping July will be a little kinder. On the plus side, we’ve seen a ton of wildlife lately: deer, a beaver (!) chewing leaves, little grebe-lings taking diving lessons from their mom, a plethora of the usual herons, eagles, ducklings, and baby bunnies. I’ll leave you with this recent picture of dusk on Mt. Rainier…
