Chapbook Launch

What is a Holm?

A holm is a small island in a river. Whereas a chapbook is a short book of up to 30 pages, a literary holm is 10 or less pages.

Upcoming Publications:

A chapbook,  Maya: Poems for the Summer Solstice (Leaf Press) will be coming in  2012, and a holm “Stories of Snow” (Alfred Gustav Press) in the fall of 2011.  A poem came out in The Literary Review of Canada in August, and  another in The Antigonish Review this fall.  Two sonnets will be coming out in the filth issue  of The Windsor Review  in 2012. Also a poem “Aubade to the Aubergine: Eggplants for David” is forthcoming in an anthology  with the theme ‘Poets on poets’ published by Guernica Press next spring.
