Margot Kahn truly lives out the ethos of beginner’s mind in her writing and her life (she opened a bakery! she hosts a podcast about ferries with her son!) Read on & channel some of that potent beginner’s mind energy for yourself.🌲 emilymohnslate.substack.com/p/i-have-time

Amy Stuber's stories are about your neighbors and friends, the people you think you know, and what they are all hiding from you: the truth, which is that we are children and will remain so, that we are performing and we don't know it.

I'd like to create an "Authors of Small/Indie Press Books 2024-2025" starter pack. Is that you? If so, please reply here. Also, if you don't mind reposting this for visibility, I'd appreciate it! #writingcommunity #indiebooks #indieauthors #booksky

"... and when I was young I was mildly outrageous, and now I am completely, having seen in my brief forays into predictability that there's no percentage in it. Really, there isn't. I know you hope there is, but really, there isn't." —Irene McKinney, "Legs," from "Have You Had Enough Darkness Yet?"

New Micro Q&A with @scribblermiller.bsky.social! Congrats to Janna on the publication of her new collection, ALL LOVERS BURN AT THE END OF THE WORLD! Out now from @emergejournal.bsky.social! #flashfiction

Thankful to the stellar and stunning Evergreen Review, esp. to poetry editor Jee Leong Koh, for publishing four of my abecedarian attempts, alongside art by Jenny Rask. One of these poems is for bees and flowers. The other ones are for people. evergreenreview.com/read/attempt...

My prose poem "Buying Snowball Pumpkins..." just got an acceptance from @gonelawn.bsky.social, will be in my forthcoming @bellepointpress.bsky.social book, borrows a line from the Carter Family song "When the World’s on Fire," and borrows another line from this beautiful poem by Maggie Anderson --

It is a PHENOMENAL day to purchase a book from a small press. Post yours here and receive a haiku from me. Need a small press rec? Oh I have suggestions! Bloof Books, Ethel Zine, Ornithopter are among some of my favorites. 💙

It's official publication day for my collection of short stories Ring of Earth! You can buy it online at Madville Publishing or elsewhere. Here's my book on the front porch and a bit of the title story.

In 2024, we’ll be publishing three full-length poetry collections. You can follow them now to keep up with their work! @tadasborne.bsky.social @williamwoolfitt.bsky.social @juscarts.bsky.social

I just watched Mark Pellington's 2018 film "Nostalgia" and I've been thinking about inheritance and artifacts, so Julie Otsuka's essay in Lithub on writing and memory and boxes of her parents' stuff spoke to me particularly right now. (It's also a subject I keep returning to in my own writing.)

My #flash collection THE MISSING GIRL, available from Black Lawrence Press (not from Amazon at the moment, apparently—but I hope you're avoiding them for book purchases anyway!) https://blacklawrencepress.com/books/the-missing-girl/
