One way to understand your own condition is to write something and spend a long time revising it. In revising you teach yourself. You find your own information buried in your body. It is still alive until you are not. —Fanny Howe, RIP

My thanks to @versedaily.bsky.social

I have so enjoyed spending time with the beautiful new issue of Anacapa Review and am over the moon to have work included. Such amazing company here. Thank you Chryss Yost and David Starkey. anacapareview.com/robin-turner/

My thanks to Christine Klocek-Lim for featuring my new chapbook at Autumn Sky Poetry Daily today. I'm a lucky poet. 💙

“Look for the helpers,” his mother would say to him whenever there were scary things in the news. “You will always find people who are helping.”

My thanks to the amazing Sally Rosen Kindred for her words of support for my new chapbook, Elegy with Clouds &.

a poem is an invitation to be (once again) (actually) alive

This Erin Murphy poem in @rattlepoetry.bsky.social is a must-read www.rattle.com/insomnia-chr...

True story, y'all. My thanks to the wonder that is Christine Klocek-Lim for selecting this one. Autumn Sky Poetry DAILY (link in comments) has been a journal for nearly twenty years now, ten of those as a daily. That's devotion. An ongoing gift for all of us. Brava, Christine! ❤️

One of my favorite anthologies ever. So many beautiful poets in its pages. And how about this gorgeous cover? Perfection.

Put the dead into your poems without garbing them in your grief. Give them cake, put on their favorite music. Listen to their gossip. Let them tell you how they've learned to bake bread. To carve clarinet reeds. Let them comb your hair. Help them remember the color orange. The scratch of wool.

witness it 🕯️

Something to look forward to in 2025, The Essential C.D. Wright.

This piece from Jessica Cuello. Sooo good!

Today is a good day to share the poem I wrote for the Praisesong for the People project created by Texas Poet Laureate Amanda Johnston! She says it’s important to give people their flowers and I agree! 🌹🪻🌸🌺🌷🌻

Two years since HAUNTED was released? Wow. Still delighted to have work included in this gorgeous antho from Porkbelly Press.

The two quotes I always share with poets & writers about submitting their work are: "Don't self-select" and "It's their job to say no, not yours." I believe that, more often than not, the biggest obstacle to publication is ourselves. #writinglife

I am absolutely smitten with this Todd Dillard poem. So good.

without tenderness, we are in hell. —Adrienne Rich * & so to tenderness I add my action. —Aracelis Girmay
