Our culture has taught us to believe in many ideas which aren't actually real. Exposing these illusions allows us to recover the power to live our lives according to our deepest desires.
I got my Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctorate degrees in English at Binghamton University. From 2000 to 2006, I've taught American Literature, Russian Literature in Translation, Creative Writing, and Composition at BU. I am currently a full-time Visiting Professor at Mansfield University in Pennsylvania. Major influences: Liz Rosenberg, Maria Mazziotti Gillan, Ruth Stone; Prose poets, especially Baudelaire; Raymond Carver, Flannery O'Connor, Sherwood Anderson.
