Fantastic event @astoriabookshop.bsky.social for the launch of Lindsay Stuart Hill’s world of dew with readings from @emilyhockaday.bsky.social. Two of my favorites so far when going through the books… it’s January still by LSH and River Clay by EH.

Poets, start your wild, precious engines.

Our leader is starving his people and blaming it on everyone else. I really can’t fathom this dystopia we live in where corporations worth billions don’t pay fair taxes or their employees livable wages but food insecure residents aren’t worth spending $$ on. TLDR please donate to local food banks.

Just a few days away!

I'm grateful for the beautiful trans people in my life. But solidarity is never just about "them." It's about all of us. Recognition of trans people is liberating for everyone. It opens space for all of us to think about our identities and relationships outside the sex we were assigned at birth.

This book is maybe my most personal—almost memoir—and so I'm having some writer's remorse. But I want to do it justice. I put a lot into this, and I'm proud to have a book that features a pregnant and postpartum body. 5 days.
