Hannah Greico Interviews Koss in Chiron Review 136, Spring, 2025

March 27, 2025 ·

I’m so very honored to have this interview by Hanna Greico about Dancing Backwards (from Diode Editions) in the latest issue of one of my all-time favorite literary zines, Chiron Review! We discuss process, privacy issues, form and more!

Thank you, Hannah, Michael Hathaway, and all the editors for publishing it and for this fabulous issue. I see lots of familiar folks in here and look forward to reading it! I will update with a link when it becomes available for purchase on their website, but it will appear here, where you can also pick up a very affordable subscription and support the magazine!

The Pinch Journal | Issue 44.3 Spring 2025

March 27, 2025 ·

It’s very pleased to have art in The Pinch Journal, a journal I really admire. Very grateful to Editor-in-Chief, Courtney Miller Santo, Managing Editor, Joshua Carlucci, Art Editor, Isaiah Kennedy and the rest of the staff for putting together such a lovely issue (and for including me). There is lots of great art, poetry, and writing in here–it’s really a stellar lineup, so be sure to check it out (I’ve included screenshots of the TOC so you can see the contributor list). It isn’t yet on their website as of 3/27, but I’m sure they’ll have it listed soon! Here is a link to The Pinch print page.

Book Review Dancing Backwards Toward Pluperfect | Carla Sarett | Trampoline Poetry

March 16, 2025 ·

Carla Sarett wrote a beautiful book review of Dancing Backwards and Trampoline Poetry published it. It is a very thorough and generous review—I’m sure you will enjoy it. Note that their reviews seems to be loaded on one page, one after the other, so if you arrive on my page in the far future, you will need to scroll down, or, faster, just type “dancing backwards” after hitting control F on a keyboard for PCs and it should take you to the review. Very grateful to both Carla and Trampoline for this.

Review of Dancing Backwards Towards Pluperfect by Erin Vachon

February 26, 2025 ·

Very pleased and honored by this very queer book review of Dancing Backwards Towards Pluperfect by Erin Vachon and published in Moist Poetry. Aside from the flattering recommendation, it’s nice to see my work resonating with other queers. And I agree that we need queer poetry right now more than ever as our basic civil rights are being dismantled by this evil regime. I’m also grateful to Han Vanderhart for publishing it in their queer poetry journal, Moist Poetry.

Interview (RE) An Ideas Journal, Kristine Esser Slentz

February 20, 2025 ·

Very grateful for this interview in (Re) An Ideas Journal, today. Thank you, Kristine Esser Slentz for your time and thoughtfulness in this interview. And thank you, Felice Neals and H.E. Fisher (editors) for the publication. So honored! We talk about grief, healing, trauma, religion, and writing queer and working class. Be sure to read the whole issue as it has great poetry, art, and other creative goodness!

Book Review | Barton Smock | Kings of Train

February 17, 2025 ·

Pleased and surprised to find this lyrical book review by Barton Smock, a brilliant language-kind-of-poet with a heart. Barton published one of the poems (the last long list poem) in Isacoustic, his journal, a few years ago. Find the review here.
