Featured Poet on Orchards June Issue
The beautiful Orchards poetry zine June issue is live, with featured poet Siham Karami, someone who can be seen running around the block, occasionally clicking her heels, and behaving generally in the manner of a lunatic having won the lottery. Bragging everywhere is what I'm all about at this point. My first ever interview. Eternal thanks to the wonderful Karen Kelsay, one of the best publishers around, and the fantastic Jeff Holt who conducted the interview. Did I say I'm overwhelmed? Excited? Oh yes, you might call it that. 
Added important note: This is a spectacular issue including other Spherians: Katie Hoerth, Jan Hodge, Terese Coe, Marly Youmans, Mark Blauer, and David Landrum. It's a huge honor to be included with them and all the fine poets in this issue. Hope I didn't miss anyone!

Wow, Siham. That's a pretty impressive run of eleven poems. I can't decide which is my favorite--they are all so strong. Congrats,
Aaron

Thanks so much, Cathy, Greg, Katie, and Richard!!
And Katie, your comment reminded me that you have 2 great poems there—which I much enjoyed! So I added you and others I recognized as spherians. I was so overwhelmed I forgot to add how much I enjoyed all the poetry in this edition.

Well, I have a special thing for Labor Day, but very much enjoyed all of them. (I haven't read the interview yet, but very cool to be interviewed, unless it's because your a famous inmate or something). Big congratulations Siham!
