2025 has been unexpectedly expensive so far, and we still have much of the year to go, so.... I'm celebrating the last two days of National Poetry Month (April) with a little fundraising thing: Buy me a Ko-Fi, send me a word (one word), and I will write you a haiku or limerick based on that word.

Spent Independent Book Store Day signing books for the lovely customers at White Rose Books and More in Kissimmee. One woman picked up Speak EZ and asked "Is this...a queer romance?" She was so excited when I nodded. "This is why I came to a smaller bookstore!" she told me.

Shout out to fellow Bywater Books paranormal finalist @elleeire.bsky.social for Speak EZ! Such a great story and a phenomenal writer!!!!

If you need me, I’ll be sipping a forbidden cocktail and listening to Jeremy Carlisle Parker aka Quinn Riley, Narrator… please don’t need me. @elleeire.bsky.social

Thursday is the night. 9 PM is the time for @ginikoch.bsky.social's April READ THIS!!! Book Club featuring @elleeire.bsky.social's #murdermystery #ghoststory, SPEAK EZ. To say nothing of the dog. Check it out! ginikoch.blogspot.com
