Denver David Robinson

I am working to finalize a first draft of my first book of nonfiction, a collection of interrelated essays and vignettes that I've tentatively entitled "Rupture". I was awarded a career grant from the Oregon Arts Commission to work one-on-one with poet and author Diana Goetsch to guide/mentor me on this project. Part of the grant application included a week in residence at Sou'Wester Lodge. My side projects included finalizing several translations of queer Moroccan-Danish poet Elias Sadaq's poems for submission to literary journals and curating a chapbook from my daily poem writing. Lastly, I continued editing a friend's manuscript.
