About Me

My first book, The Resurrection of the Body and the Ruin of the World, won the 2002 New Issues Prize in Poetry. My second book, Notes for My Body Double, won the 2006 Prairie Schooner Book Prize. In 2009, Ecco Books will publish my memoir, One More Theory About Happiness, and my third collection of poems, My Index of Slightly Horrifying Knowledge. I'm a visiting professor of English at the University of West Georgia.
