The website for my book is nearly complete — the final piece, a “create your own remix” section, is on its way.
Recently, I added audio and photos from the Victoria Book Launch on March 13. A huge shoutout to Susan Sanford Blades for organizing the event as part of the Wild Prose reading series (https://www.susansanfordblades.com/wild-prose-reading-series).
After a remixed reading of my book, I sat down for an on-stage interview with Wayde Compton. This was an incredible full circle moment, and audio (as well as a transcript) are now available as well.
I’ve also added a new remix to the Remix section: “Kind of Blue in Green (for GEC),” which reimagines Miles Davis’s “Blue in Green” and offers a poetic riff/reading of George Elliott Clarke’s “Bluing Green.”
Head over to www.soundincanaan.com to explore this new material and more from the book. If you don’t have a copy yet, you can grab one here — and save 20% all April with the code POETRY2025.
