I’m thrilled to be in Stone Circle Review today ❤️

I sincerely hope Democrats pay attention to tonight’s results across the country. They won’t learn anything but still. Maybe. People are excited by change and original campaigns and bold ideas and candidates under the age of 50!

This is a must-read/share.

Great new issue! redtreereview.com/issues/issue...

Very pleased to be a part of this issue of @barrelhouse.bsky.social - my first published poem! Lots of cool stuff in the issue, all free online (below), so check it out if you have a minute. Me, I’ll be looking up what a villanelle is - I feel like I should know that, now that I’m a poet and all. 😀

I'm also refusing to make a martini with Drano.

Issue Two is here! We're so excited to bring you this collection of poems, prose, and artwork. Thank you to all of our contributors, who we will be highlighting for the next several weeks.

This is who they want to portray as an agent of Hamas.

“I have come to wonder whether these expressions of despair and surrender are really masking an irrational longing for a magical way out of this nightmare - a hope that some deus ex machina will swoop down and spare us what we are facing.” open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

With so much abject capitulation to Trump by rich, scared men, it’s affirming and a high honor to highlight when women have stood up firmly against him this week. My write-up on three such women: https://buff.ly/4avog60

I love this poem in the Winter issue of @thedodgemag.bsky.social by Charlotte Newbury

No, I am not going to rewrite part 3 of Absolution without the fucks, but thanks for reaching out.

Headed to Boston for #ncte Hope to see some of you there!

As a writing studies person & academic (😬), I’ve honestly felt embarrassed & disappointed at how some teacher-scholars seem inclined to make peace w/ AI, trying to teach it rather than calling it out as fundamentally unethical. But here’s an article arguing for resistance & not giving an inch.

“No,” I said, feeling defensive. “This is my house now.” New flash fiction piece (by me) up at @cottonxenomorph.bsky.social.

I can’t write short poems. So I’m extra impressed by little bits of perfection like this one: sixthfinch.com/amyers1.html

Novel #1 is about to go on submission 🎉 Novel #2 is almost at 50k. Both are #NaNoWriMo books, starting 2019!

This is the best 5-paragraph essay I’ve ever read

Natalie Shapero is my favorite poet these days. I am hooked.

I received my first Pushcart nomination today, and I’m so amazed and happy! It’s for one of my favorite poems, too 🧡

Hit 48k on the new novel today. It’s finally coming along! #NaNoWriMo

Very excited to have this poem out today in the the lovely journal Syncopation. Thinking of my daughter, now 17, away at ballet school, missing her greatly!

I led a poetry workshop for 50+ grade 7-12 students this week, and I am exhausted, but so happy, because their teachers said they had an amazing time 🌟

Many thanks to the editors of The Hooghly Review for including four of my poems in issue 2: www.thehooghlyreview.com/issues/issue.... Here's one little guy:
