Is it insomnia or is it just that you’re a parent who finally has their “me time” after the entire house has fallen asleep?

Obsessively writing only in my diary right now. The laptop’s been on a long break 😅

Biweekly check-in with @sabrineamro.bsky.social my Tin House nonfiction cohort buddy. We’re figuring it out together—where we’re at, where we’re headed. Showing up. Talking life, writing, all the stuff in between. These meetings help adjust my compass. Thank you Sabrine 🤍 #writingcommunity

Got to read your poem in this, I felt it!! So relatable to today

A much-needed peer meet! 🤍

Such a gorgeous poem! Thank you Mai-Linh

Happy Mexica (Aztec) New Year 🪶

The Aztec Empire wasn’t ‘ancient’—it thrived while Da Vinci painted The Last Supper. Tenochtitlán, larger than London, had running water before Madrid and a complex infrastructure that rivaled the most advanced cities of its time. Calling it ancient is a Eurocentric and colonized narrative.

These books are full of women embarking on transformative self-discovery journeys, coming into their own in their 30s and 40s

Have given up trying to write daily and instead honor my cycles

Don't buy shit, write your book

These books illuminate the dichotomies of Guatemala, a place blessed with beauty and plagued by history. (@jaredlemus.bsky.social)

Don’t buy today. Give the greedheads a taste of their own medicine.

Almost dropped my Domme content on this account. This is why burner phones exist 😅

So honored to read my peer’s work, it’s been years and this feeling never gets old 🥹

Really pleased to have two poems from GRIEF SUITE in the new issue of Modern Language Studies, and even more pleased to be presenting on Ilya Kaminsky's DEAF REPUBLIC and women-led utopian resistance narratives at NeMLA (which sponsors MLS!) in two weeks.

I confess this compassion I am not above hating you. if you think my freedom a threat, if you kill a scapegoat because it is more alive than you.

Revisiting this gem to ground myself before jumping into my next stack of reads

Best week EVER. I’m blown away by how helpful, enlightening, and elevating the @tinhouse.bsky.social workshop has been. I felt largely alone on my writing journey—now, not so much. Forever grateful for this experience!

Some writers I know put together a “Rejection Club” where once a month we meet on zoom and share our latest rejections and chat about our new submissions. And that’s one of the things I’m most excited about in 2025

my story "standardized test" is now free to read! please fill out your answers with a #2 pencil and pray for mercy! www.lightspeedmagazine.com/fiction/stan...

The @tinhouse.bsky.social workshop is in full swing, and I’m in awe of my peers’ work—both beautifully written and deeply important. I’m so honored to be a part of this! 🖤 #thww
