I am very excited to create a page to feature my forthcoming book, The Art of Looking Back: A painter, an obsession, and reclaiming the gaze, to be publishing by Thornapple Press in May, 2026. And here’s the book’s page at the press website.
I will add to this page as things progress. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you are interested in having me talk to your book club, give a reading, participate in literary festivals and other events. In the moment in which we are living, which we all know didn’t begin yesterday and won’t end tomorrow, stories of power imbalances, older men and young women (who don’t necessarily know they have agency), the veiled and open threats that accompany sexual aggression and resistance, there are good reasons for us to keep talking.

I love seeing the endorsements appearing on my book’s page at Thornapple Press. People are so generous.
