Since Neuron Mirror, co-authored with Michael Walsh,
I have continued to write poetry
and promote appreciation of poetry.
I now have two manuscripts awaiting publication:
One is devoted to dissenters against
repressive power
in the world over the last 30 years.
The second book is about the tides of human experience.
On Shelter Island, I have been curating Poetry Webinars for the library.
You can hear my interviews with Long Island poets and hear their poetry and mine by going to the YouTube links provided below.
