Starting from 1975, he became involved with the Vehicule Art Gallery and Vehicule Press, reading at the gallery, and publishing with and editing at the press.

He was a core member of the Vehicule Poets.

From 1975-1983 he ran a literary magazine, CrossCountry, and a small press, CrossCountry Press with his friend Jim Mele in New York.
