CAConrad's childhood included selling cut flowers along the highway for his mother and helping her shoplift. He escaped to Philadelphia the first chance he got where he lives and writes today with The PhillySound poets. Soft Skull Press published his book Deviant Propulsion in 2006. Jack Kimball's FAUX Press recently published his new series of poems (Soma)tic Midge (samples from this new work can be seen in listenlight and MiPOesias and Sawbuck and COCONUT#9). His collaborative series with poet Frank Sherlock titled The City Real & Imagined: Philadelphia Poems, will be coming out in 2008 from Factory School Press. His book The Frank Poems is forthcoming in 2008 from CHAX Press. A selection of The Frank Poems was translated into German by Berlin poet Holger, and a bilingual chapbook is now available from Carrie Hunter's YPOLITA Press.
