Default My first book: Not Elegy, But Eros

After 10 years of publishing in journals, I'm delighted to say that today is the official release date of my first full-length collection of poems, titled Not Elegy, But Eros, published by NYQ Books. Here's the link.

If you'd like to see some sample poems, here are some poems online, including the title poem: "Not Elegy, But Eros," "Allegiance," and "Shining Shoes." There's also a "look inside" feature on the publisher's website.

If you'd like a signed copy, please send me a PM.

Thanks,
Nausheen

Well done, Nausheen! Very nice poems as well - and I think I recognize Not Elegy but Eros, I remember it.

Cheers,
John

Nick, John, Andrew, Mark, Cally, and Vera -- thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it. Having a first book is beyond thrilling. It's like I'm floating and having a hard time getting back down to earth! It's wonderful to have a community to share my joy with, so thank you.
