I wrote a chapbook and it got published!! I kept this on the down low for a while as final details were sorted out but it’s available today 🥳 Take a peek at the cover art and one of the poems included below! 
I’ve been writing for years now (If you didn’t know, now you know) and to finally have an actual collection put together and published has been a dream of mine forever. Working with @bottlecap-press has been a super smooth process and I’m so excited to have contributed to this indie press. 
I hope when I say this it is true, but "On the Diagonal" is only my humble beginning. It would be extremely supportive of you, whoever is reading this, to pick up a copy of my first solo published work. It would truly mean a lot to me. The link to purchase is here: https://bottlecap.press/products/diagonal  
Most of the poems in this collection were written in 2020, a few even earlier than that and a few from this year. I think the different time periods demonstrate a deeper level to the growth I’ve gone through as a writer, as my voice and poetic style has changed quite a lot over the course of my life. 
A chapbook is a micro collection of poetry, and I used that format to take a focused look at a period of my past. I think we all experience a heartbreak that changes us forever. "On the Diagonal" aims to put that metamorphosis into words that add another layer of beauty to the transformations we all go through.

I love stories. Some of you know, but some probably don't, that about ten years ago, Propertius Press came into being. We're doing some pretty awesome work - curating a collection of reads selected for their propensity to stay with you long after you turn the last page.
We look for authors with an authentic voice, whose story hasn't been told in the same old format and fashion, and we lift them up to readers everywhere.
Check them out. In a world with sparkly, fast joys everywhere you look, Propertius invites you to settle in, get comfy, grab a cuppa, and breathe in.

POEMS OF MATSUO BASHO ii is a short and varied collection of Basho’s haiku.
Suffering from depression and a persistent sense of loneliness, Basho’s work embodies wabi-sabi. While difficult to articulate, wabi-sabi, for Basho, concerns the pursuit of simplicity - “lightness” - and the beauty of loneliness, “akin to, but deeper than, nostalgia.
Each translation is accompanied by the original Japanese text and English transliteration (romaji).
