Published Elsewhere

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing my words in print since newspapers were a thing. Since then, besides copies of old Letters to the Editor and acceptance emails for both print and online writing (along with plenty of rejections!), I’ve also had the joy of holding four of my own books in my hands: Mining the Bright Birds: Poems of Longing for Home, (Wipf & Stock, 2023), a small chapbook, “Emmanuel Poems-Verses for the Holidays,” (2024), “Hearts on Pilgrimage-Poems & Prayers,”  (2021) and “Living the Season Well-Reclaiming Christmas” (2017, rev. 2018).  

Below is a list of the many other places my work has appeared both virtually and on paper in the last 15-some years. (The newspaper records are long gone.) The list includes essays and poetry, plus podcast and video interviews. You can find all my books on the BOOKS tab at the top of the page to further your reading.

My writing journey began in 8th grade typing class and while I’m grateful for computers, I do miss Smith Corona typewriters!
