He has worked as an editor in the Southwest and now lives in the Great Plains. Recently published chapbook and book titles are Metacowboy, Mogollon Picnic, Hill of Better Sleep, Felton Prairie, In Wait, Cross Point Road, Late & Later, The Western Wide, Billy Boy, Ahead of Evening, and Winter in Fargo. The Hjemkomst, a replicated Viking longship, was built in a Minnesota potato cellar, then sailed to Norway via the Great Lakes and the north Atlantic. Later, it came to permanent dockage at its own museum in Moorhead, Minnesota. Nelson’s poem “Rounding Third” is in part a meditation on the ship. He’s of Norwegian and Swedish ancestry.
