Getting closer to the release date of my second poetry book, Even the Dog Was Quiet (Human Error Publishing). Today is cover reveal day! The pastel painting is by Alex Polner and is called “The Crossing.” Alex also drew 8 interior illustrations. Also, I have been revamping my website. Tada! Come take a look when you have a moment.

On October 11th, at 6:45 pm EST, please join us for a poetry reading and a collective discussion of what is here that is not here in its proliferation of meanings / openings / possibilities. What is here, in poetry / language in the making, that is not in psychology / Social Sciences? What is here, in this gathering, that is not in this academic institution / disciplinary boundaries? What is here, in psychology, that is not here – that does not “exist” given our epistemological methods and assumptions? Location: CUNY Graduate Center, 365 Fifth Ave, NYC, Rm. 6304.01. Bring ID to enter the university and ask for Michelle Fine. The building is physically accessible for those with disabilities.

Today is the one-year anniversary of my debut poetry collection, “If There Is No Wind”(Human Error Publishing). This has been an amazing journey.
