Guess what came knocking on my door this morning from Ireland? A first box of my new book, Unexplained Fevers!
The curious onlooker is my cat, Bastett. She’s not much of a literary critic; she mostly wants the box!
In case you are interested in ordering a signed copy, you can order it online from me here:
https://webbish6.com/unexplained-fevers.htm
The form should automatically calculate shipping, and takes Paypal. You can also e-mail me about orders at jeannine dot gailey at live dot com.
If you are overseas, or just want to support a good independent press, you can order it from New Binary Press in Ireland, here:

In the meantime, I’ve got National Poetry Month events to worry about, like reading for the Redmond City Council and doing a workshop for teens at the local library, talking about building poetry community over on my former island home (Bainbridge Island.) Preparing for my debut reading in Seattle for Unexplained Fevers (with Kelly Davio reading from her first new book, Burn This House) at Open Books!
Even so, little things spring up, things like my first ever review in Dutch (of my first book, Becoming the Villainess, here or, if you don’t speak Dutch, try a translated version here) that remind me that you never know who is paying attention, or when they will pay it, or in what language. We have to be grateful when they pay attention to poetry at all.


Jeannine Hall Gailey served as the second Poet Laureate of Redmond, Washington and the author of Becoming the Villainess, She Returns to the Floating World, Unexplained Fevers, The Robot Scientist’s Daughter, and winner of the Moon City Press Book Prize and SFPA’s Elgin Award, Field Guide to the End of the World. Her latest, Flare, Corona from BOA Editions, was a finalist for the Washington State Book Award. She’s also the author of PR for Poets, a Guidebook to Publicity and Marketing. Her work has been featured on NPR’s The Writer’s Almanac, Verse Daily and The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror. Her poems have appeared in The American Poetry Review, Poetry, and JAMA.
