I donât often post about politics on social media. Partly because I want my social media use to be professional or near professional. Partly because I donât think social media is the space for reasoned and mature political debate. However, I feel I need to post about this: (1/5)

Update on this: I got a response yesterday, and it was a rejection. Iâm pretty sure it was a tiered rejection, though, which always helps. Nevertheless itâs another row of red on my submissions table.

I had the idea to write (& post) some short poems every so often which are inspired by the title of a poetry magazine or press. They probably wonât be my best work, but if I enjoy it Iâll keep going. Itâs a show of my appreciation for people who choose to dedicate their time to publishing poems.

Increasingly tempted every day that passes to apply for funding and start producing sick as hell poetry anthologies. If anyone knows a publisher who is seeking someone to run an anthology project please let them know I am dying to pitch. đ€

I am waiting to hear back on a poetry journal submission. I should have expected a response by now. I always give some extra leeway before chasing up. I think âthey must be seriously considering my workâ However, I do keep obsessively checking emails. This happens every few months.

Well, now I've settled into bluesky a little, put up my feet, made a cup of tea, and fallen asleep by the fire I suppose I should tell them as don't know about my survey for my PhD:

It has come to my attention that my surname is the German for âwordâ. Splendid. I love nominative determinism.
