BEST NEWS EVER!!

This is Erika Robuck. 

  @Brasserie Brightwell, Easton.  April 2011.

She is my writing partner, the sole reason I am where I am today.   What I mean is I am a writer, a poet, a phoenix.  I create my life, me, over and over and as result my art follows, much as it too leads me through.  There is zero separating out any of this ebb or flow.  I recognize the sync of Life as a whole because of this identity I claim, I recognize the rhythms, the cycles that push and propel and at times stand still, the whole of all of Life itself.   

from the street, Erika Writing.  Annapolis, March 2010.

Erika is the first person to ever wholly commit to this journey with me, as I have undertaken to the same with her.  We call this process Nous.  Well the process, at just the right Time, has paid off...

Erika Robuck has accepted a two-book deal with Penguin books!

Look for Hemingway's Girl, to be released some time in 2012...

And, now that I can finally mention it without crying, I could not be more thrilled, excited, and endlessly honored for my partner, my sister, my teacher and my friend.

Congratulations grl.  You so, so deserve it.  (aaack, tears...!) To Nous, my dear~that it never ends~
