I just received a copy of Jose Antonio Rodriguez's the shallow end of sleep. I will be writing a review of it for Texas Book Review. I also have a manuscript I need to print out and comment on for someone, and the person appears to be a genius, so this will take some time for me to explore the manuscript.

I will then review ire'ne lara silva's furia and Millicent Borges Accardi's Injuring Eternity for the El Paso Times. It feels good to be busy with poetry!

My review of Christopher Carmona's beat is scheduled to appear in the El Paso Times on the 31st.

After reviewing these books, I will begin getting ready to send work out to magazines in Aug/Sept.
