The Evening Sky, my second collection of poems, was published in 2020, and my first poetry collection, Cave Art, in 2014. Both books are from Wiseblood Books, and both are available from Wiseblood Books, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble.

From reviews of Cave Art:

“[Hughes’s] poems are clear and vibrant jewels. . . . All of these poems breathe empathy and love, more so than any collection I’ve read in recent years.”
—Jill Peláez Baumgaertner, The Christian Century

“Hughes seeks the beauty that radiates, almost imperceptibly, from our daily sufferings and disappointments and failures . . . . Cave Art . . . I hope is just the first example of his success.”
—Michial Farmer, The Englewood Review of Books

“. . . deep in these metrical and unconscious recesses of things, Hughes reveals his perceptivity and power as a poet.”
—James Matthew Wilson, The Weekly Standard
