I'll be at AWP this year with a new book of poems, Fifty Mothers! Panel, signing, offsites! Come say hi in Baltimore!

In two weeks, I get to celebrate my new book with wonderful poet friends at Green Apple Books on the Park! The first 30 attendees who buy Fifty Mothers from Green Apple Books at the launch on February 25 will receive a limited-edition surprise object from the book.

My book of poems, Fifty Mothers will finally be in the world in 3 weeks from now! Until then, you can still nab a copy by preordering directly from the press store! I suck at book summaries so I am very thrilled about this para Alta wrote up for it! riverriverbooks.org/store/-P…

On Feb 25, I'll have the joy of launching my new book of poems, Fifty Mothers at Green Apple Books on 9th Ave. We'll celebrate with readings by @JQiii @UrvashiBahuguna, Sarah Matsui and Samantha Busa! RSVP here. There will be SNACKS... and books. greenapplebooks.com/event/20…

And to Aimee Nezhukumatathil & Jane Wong! I love that you felt the love in this book!

With deep gratitude to Paisley Rekdal & Victoria Chang for spending time with my work, and these generous words of praise!

My second collection of poems, Fifty Mothers, that weaves narrative and elegy for my gone mother, is now open for preorders! Big love to Han and @amorak at @RiverRiverBooks for believing in this work! riverriverbooks.org/store/-P…

My book Fifty Mothers comes out Feb 2026 from @RiverRiverBooks. Would love to connect if it feels right.

I adore my troublesome but loving father. Mainly because he named the shop after me :D Photo ft. @dramdass bathed in Bombay sweat. And my Papa poem ft. dry ass Marie biscuits cortlandreview.com/issue-87/…

Nobody knew about the existence of Indian railways before Chhaiyan Chhaiyan song.

The brilliant cover. Fifty Mothers is also the title of my poetry manuscript on submission. The book has been semi-finalist/finalist 6 times now in case there are presses lurking on my twitter :D

Delayed but heartful thanks to @AGNIMagazine for publishing my Fifty Mothers. Here's the full text.

Coming to AWP this year thanks to the thoughtfulness of @TorsaG who invited me to be on this panel. And @JJoPDX for dreaming up this firecracker of an offsite theme!
