His list of book publications include Among the Consonants (Elizabeth Press), Oblivion, Tyrants, Crumbs (First Intensity), The Nightest (Longhouse) plus other publications that range from a book of prose from life & times in Greece, editing his small press journal Smoot, and various chapbooks and delights.
