Who am I
My debut poetry collection, I Ate the Cosmos for Breakfast, was recently released by Saint Julian Press. I am also the author of the bestselling novel Six Weeks to Yehidah; its companion journal, My Yehidah (both on All Things That Matter Press); and The Tiferet Talk Interviews. My awards include the Forward National Literature Award, the International Book Award, the Readers’ Favorite Award, and two Pinnacle Book Achievement Awards.
My poetry, fiction, essays, reviews, and articles have appeared in dozens of journals and anthologies, including Boulevard, Connecticut Review, Pleiades, and Poets & Writers. In addition to writing, I serve as editorial advisor for The Criterion and a host for Tiferet Talk radio. I received my MFA from Sarah Lawrence college and am a professor for the Lone Star College System and a teaching artist for The Rooster Moans Poetry Cooperative.
