The Spring Supplement of Blue Fifth Review, entitled “Appalachia: A Sampling of Contemporary Poems,” contains an “Introduction ” by Felicia Mitchell, an interview with Kathryn Stripling Byer by Nicole Cartwright Denison, poems by doris davenport, Nicole Cartwright Denison,  Libby Falk Jones, Helen Losse, Jeff Mann,  Jeff Daniel Marion, Jim Minick,  Scott Owens,  Morgan Richards, and artwork by Jason Hibbitts.

I want to thank Editor Sam Rasnake and Guest Editor Felicia Mitchell for including three of my poems -  “Thunder and Blue Socks,” “But Why Deer?” and “Clarification.”   It’s an honor to be published alongside poets of this caliber.
