Another Fire is a handmade letterpress limited edition chapbook of seven poems, published in 1997 by Adastra Press, Easthampton, MA. The book is technically available via Amazon, but if you want a copy, the safest bet is to get it through me. Don't be shy!

My poems and book reviews have appeared in Calyx, Quarterly West, The Silverfish Review, Willow Springs, The Laurel Review, Poet Lore, Georgetown Review, Indiana Review, and other journals.

From 1995-2000, I published and edited the poetry journal Amaranth.

Google my name and you'll get a sampling of my professional writing, which is mostly related to education, as well as children's authors and illustrators.

I currently manage the publishing department at a small nonprofit, where

I decided to read this because the Sylvia Plath biography I'm currently reading (Red Comet) mentions Hawthorne's "Rappaccini's Daughter" as one of Plath's favorite stories, so I read that (it was terrific) and decided to try more Hawthorne.

Rusty I knew you graduated from Emerson, actually. That's how I recognized your name. I was there from 92-95. I don't know if we knew each other or not--I'm awful with faces--but I know I bought a copy of your chapbook sometime in the late 90s because I knew you were an Emerson grad. Go figger. :-) Hope you're well.
