My poetry manuscript System of Ghosts was listed as a finalist in the 42 Miles Press Poetry Award. They are based out of Indiana and publish beautiful books!

I also learned recently that I was a finalist in the Jacar Press First-book Manuscript Contest. Congrats to the winning author, Gary Fincke! Jacar Press is a community-active press doing great things in North Carolina. In addition to their literary publishing, they host community workshops and other events.
