Save the date!  I'm hosting a reading of new poetry and fiction by fab Queens-based writers Sherese Francis, Safia Jama, Valerie G. Keane, and Camila Santos at Queens Council on the Arts' LAB , Friday, March 3rd.

Catch Catherine's year-end reflection on the writing process and the days ahead at Bird's Thumb/Write Here, Write Now .  Happy 2017!

Start your new year with a few wordsmiths. Glad to be part of Forever Night at the Nuyorican this Sunday, January 1st!

Four poems from Catherine's Spook Speak: A Tale of Espionage series are forthcoming in Small Beer Press's LCRW #35 .

I'm excited to be reading on Nov. 5th at Poets House with visiting Indian poet Subodh Sarkar and a line-up of noted writers, including New York State Poet Laureate Yusef Komunyakaa. Please join us at 4pm!

Catherine has been named one of TWP's 2016-17 Science and Religion fellows . Based at Arizona State University, the program fosters writing that explores harmonies, reconciliation, and productive interaction between science and religion.   

I'm honored to have my poems "Namibian Sands" and "Meditation at Lion's Head" included in New Contrast 's issue on voyages.
