His translations of Olga Orozco, in collaboration with Ron Drummond, are featured in Guernica, Terra Incognita, U.S. Latino Review, and Visions. In 2012 he was a finalist for the Andrés Montoya prize.

Ron Drummond's first collection of poems is the prize-winning Why I Kick at Night. His poetry also appears in the Penguin textbook Literature as Meaning, and in the anthologies Poetry Nation, Poetry After 9/11, This New Breed, and Saints of Hysteria. His translations, in collaboration with the talented and muy guapo Guillermo Filice Castro, have appeared in U.S. Latino Review, Terra Incognita and Guernica. He has been awarded fellowships from Ragdale, VCCA, and Blue Mountain Center, and is a member of the Macondo Writers Workshop. Ron received honorable mention for the latest Pushcart Prize and has poems forthcoming in DUCTS and Ocean State Review.

Carol Rosenfeld is excited and proud that the fabulous team at Bywater Books will publish her novel, The One that Got Away, in spring/summer 2015. “Not too shabby for a 60-year old New York City-based writer and poet. Now when people annoy me I (silently) think, ‘F—k you, I’m having a novel published.’ It helps! I blog occasionally at http://crosenyc.wordpress.com./

Drunken! Careening! Writers! is a reading series based on the proposition that all readings should be by: 1) Good Writers; 2) Who read their work well; 3) Something in it makes people laugh (nervous laughter counts).

...and 15 minutes tops.

Careening since 2004!
