My first book launch was at Literati Bookstore, Thursday, March 5, 2020.
Literati is at 124 E. Washington St. in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Thank you, Literati! You can still order from Literati during the pandemic, or stop by the store!
There were 96 of you at my reading and my books sold out. Thank you to my Ann Arbor community of friends, colleagues, writers and neighbors! Who says poetry does not make things happen?
