He has had poetry published in Omnibus, Byronmania, Nicholas Gagnier's All the Lonely People, and Avalanches in Poetry: Poetry, Stories, and Art Inspired by Leonard Cohen (Edited by David L. O'Nan), and As the World Burns: Writers and Artists Reflect on a World Gone Mad (edited by Kindra M. Austin, Candice Louisa Daquin, Rachel Finch, and Christine E. Ray).
