My Book
Greetings dear reader…. I am excited to announce the launch of a new hard-bound edition of my poetry book entitled “A Majority of Wildness” Thank you for taking a moment to give
these poems a chance to speak.
These pages contain nearly two decades of inspiration; 32 poems and accompanying Cyanotype photos and gyotaku that trace my relationship with a place that has called me home since I was young - Cascade Head on the central Oregon Coast. This is a special corner of the world where I revel in life as a minority, in a majority of wildness.
This is also where I simultaneously fell in love with the wild and the woman who I have spent my life with, so love is the bright thread running through out everything you will read here.
The Hawaiians call the spirit in a place or person “mana”, and where the Salmon River meets the sea on Oregon’s central coast is filled to the brim with a convergence of this native, wild power… And it welcomes you, urges you, to participate in its fervency of creation.
