A book I reviewed, stevie redwood's A N G E R O U S B O D I E S / A N G E R O D E S, is featured on this #DisabilityPrideMonth reading list. An excerpt from my review for @paraselenemag.bsky.social :

"We confirm what is left of our beauty after the years have marked us with sons and skids down icy roads . . ." from "Leaving" by @poetlaurie.bsky.social in issue #2 read here: paraselenemagazine.com/2025/05/17/l...

Woof okay, finally off work and not trying to sneak "yays" in-between customers. So happy that this poem found a home at @paraselenemag.bsky.social (and that they included a recording — always a fan of that). It feels appropriate paraselenemagazine.com/2025/05/17/h...

In case you missed it: this new workshop will focus on the analysis of what makes poetry work stand out with “wow” factor and leads to publication and readership and hopefully we can employ some of these techniques to our own work. Come and join us! Starts June 7.

Officially terminated my contract with ELJ. Anyone interested in reprinting a book of poetry about climate change?

New review: DANGEROUS BODIES/ANGER ODES by stevie redwood (@sundresspub.bsky.social) "this book's major achievement: to personalize survival amid capitalist decay vividly enough to celebrate the 'uppercut to the fascist' as a logical act of righteous anger." paraselenemagazine.com/2025/04/08/d...
