Miami Book Fair moments.

Someone today at Miami Book Fair asked me if I was “famous,” and I asked, What is “famous” in poetry?

Come see us today at 11, and write your own Gen 305 poems with us! 🤗

A Mayor who loves books? Cool. 💜💜💜

Pat yourself on the back because, a lot of times in life, you’ll do all of the work and get none of the credit.

"There are no flamingos on Lake Michigan, which may be why it took me moving to Miami to figure out that a group of them is called a flamboyance." #TodaysPoem #poetry A Flamboyance of Flamingos by Nicole Tallman (@natallman.bsky.social) (2022 @havehashad.com)

When the world feels like it’s falling apart, the Miami Book Fair (Nov 16–23) reminds us what holds us together. Books are bridges, maps, guides. Catch me on the “Generation 305” panel with Miami-Dade Poet Laureate Caridad Moro-Gronlier on Nov 22. More at miamibookfair.com. See you there!

May I ask for 50 reposts? New York Magazine is a big deal! Thank you Bluesky!

Published today: a superb suite of poems by Traci Brimhall! bigother.com/2025/11/12/s... Cc: @tracibrimhall.bsky.social

At a recent reading, a student asked me, after the formal Q&A, the secret to being a “full-time poet,” and I had to break the news that I indeed have full-time job outside of poetry. I think I broke his heart.

Just a reminder that poetry is alive and thriving in Miami. It’s not just a city for parties, but sometimes we host poetry parties, and we have a lot of fun.

Happy Book Bday 🥂 !

On this day, 11/11, in the year 2023, FERSACE was born! 🥂

Out today!! “Come Again No More is simply the best work of Southern literature I’ve ever read, a story so lyrical and lovingly drawn – and spit-take funny – that the ghost of William Faulkner might just throw rocks at his best work. I read the book in a day, and I never do that.” —Bryan Denson

found this lil' fragment in the elephant graveyard of my abandon drafts and I kind of love it?
