Welcome to my website! Please get in touch with me if you don’t find what you’re looking for.

Here’s how to find my Israel-Palestine poems.

In light of the ongoing war–and humanitarian crisis–in Gaza, it’s seemed important to find avenues to share not only my work, but my experiences in Israel-Palestine. For poems, reflections, descriptions, and (only a few) pictures, most especially of the Compassionate Listening trip, but also on my continuing thoughts on Gaza, please come to my new Patreon account! See you there! 

I am so happy and grateful that my poem for peace, “This Keening,” has been published in Minyan Magazine! Thanks, Liz Marlow! This poem braids Brigid’s tale of the first keening with Israel/Palestine.

My poem, “Writing Across Difference to Another Girl-Poet on Lailat al-Qadr,” which was inspired by Palestinian poet Fadwa Tuqan’s memoir, A Mountainous Journey, has found a good home in the Winter 2023 issue of Solstice. I am so proud and grateful. Thanks so much, poetry editor Robbie Gamble!

My poem “Grandma Buys Me Trees for Israel and I Imagine Their Story” has been published by wonderful Split Rock Review!

My poem “Moonlit Mikveh” has been published by Minyan Magazine! This imagined poem takes place at an Israeli settlement I visited in the West Bank.

I am delighted to have my poem “Occupation Experiments” published in Issue 22 in Lunch Ticket: Striving for a More Just World!

I am so proud and grateful that my poem, “When All of the Holy Land Rings Out,” was chosen by the editors of IHRAF Publishes to be in A Human Voice, an anthology of the best of their first three years. Thanks so much editor Leah Block and all at IHRAF Publishes!

My poem “A Zone of Uncertainty” was nominated by the editors of Split Rock Review for Best of the Net!

I’ve expanded the information about my editing services. Read about poetry copyediting and editing scholarship and other academic work.    

My chapbook Where Are You From, Originally? is available from Finishing Line Press and, of course, Amazon.

Thanks for dropping by!
