Amy-Jean Muller published my piece "In My Father's Father's House" in Outcast Press's new issue

It's been a while since I rambled

Made a reconnection I'm really excited about. 

My great friend Peter Schwartz and I have bumped into one another again along this cosmic interstate. Peter and I have been writing and corresponding since 2014 but had hit a long lull - too long - and then there he was, right there on Twitter.

What's next? Who knows. But it's going to be fun.
