I am thrilled, excited beyond words, awed, and amazed to learn that my most recent collection, “A Woman in Progress,” has been honored by the 2024 American Fiction Awards as the winner in the Poetry Chapbook Category!
“A Woman in Progress” was published in February by Sheila-Na-Gig Editions and is available on Amazon and through all major bookstores.
Thank you to Hayley Mitchell Haugen and Sheila-Na-Gig for having faith in me and my work, and thank you to the American Fiction Awards!
