My Kentucky Monthly article on NuLu Food

My article "The Food Renaissance in New Louisville" is not online and in the May print edition of the Kentucky Monthly. Thanks to Wales Hunter for the amazing photographs, Kim Butterweck for the excellent editing, and of course all the restaurants--La Coop, Decca, and Mayan Cafe--for participating, meeting with me, and feeding me.

"Hibernaculum" has been released!

After many years, and just after having been a finalist for the 2012 Ahsahta Chapbook Prize, my chapbook Hibernaculum is now out from Slash Pine Press. The book is hand-stitched, and comes inside a cloth pouch with a red ribbon. Thank you to the faculty and students of the University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa for the fine work. This spring, I will be doing a book tour here and there to promote the book, of which there are only 125 copies. Interested readers can contact me or the press for copies.
