CURRENTLY: I run an occasional book club on Zoom. If you read this and it sounds like fun, please don’t hesitate to get in touch--we’d love to have you. :~)
Our next book is BLACK BEDOUIN by Mohammed Zenia and Tenaya Nasser, and we’ll be meeting on August 19 at 7 PM CST.
Future books might include:
-Swallow the Fish by Gabrielle Civil
-Tracker by Alicia Wright
-62: A Model Kit by Julio Cortazar
-Hearing by Lyn Hejinian and Leslie Scalapino
Books are selected by me, but I’m hoping we continue down a path of polyvocal and/or collaborative texts. If you have suggestions for books that fall into this conceptual arena, please email me!

I lead occasional workshops for small groups and instititions, online and in-person, often centered on exploring somatic experience, public space, and collaborative writing modalities. Current and former collaborators include The Walker Art Center, Field Experience, and Coffee House Press. Pleae email me if you’d like to work together (prefereably in a less institutional capacity).
