Learning to Feel the Sea

I’m honored to have my poem “Forty Trochees” chosen by Rachel Hadas for the Frost Farm Prize in Metrical Poetry.

Details here!

I hope everyone is well. My family and I are well too, just sheltering in place and adjusting to doing work and school from home.

Three people in the past week have asked for copies of my book. I have copies that I can deliver (at a safe distance) in Sewanee/ Monteagle or mail to you wherever you are. It’s also still available from the publisher and from certain mail-order bookstores, but you may find that it’s faster to order from me. $14.00 plus $1.50 postage. I take Venmo and PayPal. Just send me an email at jmichael@sewanee.edu.

It’s out today! If you haven’t already pre-ordered, you can continue to do so through Amazon or through Finishing Line Press.
