New poems in @oneart.bsky.social ❤️ Five Poems by Erin Hoover oneartpoetry.com/2026/05/03/f...

This morning, half asleep, I had an elaborate fantasy where I wrote to Anthropic and convinced Dario Amodei to hire me to teach Claude to not just eat books but love them, motivating it to protect writers so it can continue to have something it enjoys

Hey, I'll be #AWP26 ✨📚 I have a conference reading event on Saturday, and I'm also signing copies of No Spare People on Thursday. Let's catch up! What other panels/events should I attend?

#BookAnnouncement: @blacklawrence.bsky.social will publish my third poetry collection, titled Consent, in May 2027! BLP does wonderful work (I can vouch: No Spare People), and I'm thrilled to work with their team on this new and very different project. ❤️

“A mere hundred years I lived, / a woman trying her millennia / of threesomes, my clipper ships / full of whips and silk in long bolts, / malt liquor and floor mattresses” — @erinhoover.bsky.social, “Given thee til the break of day” www.greenlindenpress.com/issue17-erin...

Do any of the professors or journalists or teachers also get their jobs back or nah

I'll be at #AWP26, with @jennymolberg.bsky.social, @michellementing.bsky.social, Iliana Rocha, and Lisa Fay Coutley

it’s even more demoralizing when the history you’re repeating is history you were around for the first time

When you buy No Spare People this month, $1 benefits @aclutn.bsky.social ❤️

Flashback Friday to this kick-ass episode with @erinhoover.bsky.social, just in time for #Pride 🏳️‍🌈

You know how I know Elon Musk has no idea what he's doing? The same way every teacher who ever had to grade a stack of student essays on a deadline knows Elon Musk has no idea what he's doing

Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.

This is how you do it. Thank you, @tupelopress.bsky.social!!!

“There is too much sperm in America, / America is run by sperm, / but the vial I bought sprung me // from the Romance-Industrial Complex / that kept me docile for many years, // and as an exit fee, it worked.” — @erinhoover.bsky.social, “Forms and materials” @blacklawrence.bsky.social

"Hoover offers short, carved narratives in a sequence of compact lyric, articulating sharp images on and around domestic patters and patterns in the author's American south, and the complexity of writing through experiences that often feel far away from the possibilities of writing." ❤️

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH

I picked up No Spare People after hearing @erinhoover.bsky.social on @ofpoetrypodcast.bsky.social and loved it. A book that feels important & true. "It took me twenty years but I stopped glistening. I put the velvet away, the doe voice, the shiny symmetry under which I was dying."

Glimpse into how River River Books started on @southrevbooks.bsky.social 📚💙 Really loved this interview with @erinhoover.bsky.social southernreviewofbooks.com/2023/09/15/r...

I was sad to let go of my Tw***** account earlier this year. But hey, new followers. Nice to see you. 👋❤️

I am getting things done and facing my avoidance and also!!!! This conversation with poet @erinhoover.bsky.social! 🥹💙🙏

“instead I got chased from the dinner party / by some Puritan goody claiming I had designs // on her insipid mister, wrong idea, / but a clue to woman as domesticated pet // or wormy colonial acre.” — @erinhoover.bsky.social, “Forms and materials”

No Spare People is six months old today! Thanks to everyone for carrying me and the book this far. ❤️ (Btw, the best way to purchase No Spare People, with SPD closing, is direct from the publisher, blacklawrencepress.com/books/no-spa... )

"[T]he process of negotiating power is always interesting to me, and my point of access is usually that shift between irony and complete earnestness you’ll find in my poems because it’s how I get through life." It's me again, talking about No Spare People. southernreviewofbooks.com/2024/01/26/n...

"For so long, I didn’t have the language to describe myself, so I considered the languages I do know, and the woods is one of them." From my "Not Abandon, but Abide" interview with Jennifer Conlon in the Southern Review of Books Get this book. 🐟💧🌊 southernreviewofbooks.com/2024/01/17/t...
