August is Women in Translation Month , and I'm thrilled to again be hosting this reading on August 8 sponsored by the Muse Writers Center and the Poetry Society of Virginia. Please join us on Zoom for work in translation from Mexico and Myanmar along with US women writers exploring the impact of other languages and traditions on their writing in English. With Chenda Bao , Kurt Hackbarth, Carolyn Kreiter-Foronda , Tamara León , Sahar Muradi, and Thawda Aye Lei.  

The latest issue of Green Humanities is out, including a wonderful feature on "QuebEcology." Thanks to editors Peter Schulman, Josh Weinstein, and Jennifer Atkinson for including my piece "Architectonics."    

I'm excited to have 4 poems published in the latest pages of New World Writing . A big thanks to Kim Chinquee and the editorial team.  

April is National Poetry Month. To celebrate, Catherine is reading at online two events this weekend.  On Saturday, April 10 , she joins John Foy, Myronn Hardy, Rachel Hadas, and David M. Katz to explore Carl Griffin's book-length long-poem response to the coronavirus outbreak.
