new poem on the ins and outs of tissue usage in the winter issue of the summerset review! ❄️ happy holidays and all that jazz

"We die, he says. Utters the last syllable bombastically—spits it out with firework freshness. I swear I can see the concept of death colliding with his premature psyche, making a meteoric crater in the smooth terrain of his innocent mind." @abbiedollwrites.bsky.social mrbullbull.com/newbull/flas...

kicking off november with this admission: i'm often abstracted, and it leads to shit like this. (wouldn't have it any other way) thanks to the wonderful team at sunlight press for having me 🌞☁

happy haunting, everyone! excited to announce that i've got a new short story in "the ticking clock" issue of "boo"din - out today 🎃 (CW: capital punishment)

will someone please tell my brain not all new poems need to exceed a thousand words

🥁 SHORTLIST ANNOUNCEMENT 🥁 Delighted to say the Interwoven announcement is out! Such a pleasure to see such a depth of talent and experience on this list, and can’t wait for you all to meet the poems! renardpress.com/interwoven-a...

good god, i will never remember how to spell acquiesce. it's just a blur of vowels

nothing feels better than a paid acceptance 🥳

I've got a silly, love-ridden flash in the latest SoFLoPoJo alongside all these lovely peeps 👇

this "square" from @abbiedollwrites.bsky.social is great! love seeing pieces that for whatever reason barely missed me as submissions (with the reason sometimes just being I was wrong!) find their ideal home and readers!! www.theunjournals.com/unbroken46bd...

what is it about the phrase "this doesn't suit our needs" that feels so calla-lily callous

about to roll all these rejections into a snowman ☃

happy what-is-love day

dear lit mags, please refrain from beginning your rejections with the word "congratulations" sincerely, a sad submitter

feels like a good morning for some apocalyptic jazz

is my house just filled with a bunch of ghost plants

ME: *sits at desk and works* Just focus. Just focus. Don't look around. Do NOT look around. THE NEWS:

新年快乐! 🐍

let's all just listen to todd rundgren's "bang on the drum all day" on repeat 'til things get better.

one time i very lightly scratched someone's door at the grand canyon and felt really bad about it so i wrote this oddball of a poem as penance. 😅 enjoy! thanks, @leonliteraryreview.bsky.social!

shout out to talon review for giving this little moon-centric love story such a beautiful home 🌛 (and the pushcart nom!)
