I wish I could make this one! I bet it will be really great...

For your reading pleasure. From my new book! #poetry
Hey, remind me to tell you all about Project Hail Mary...
I don't care how impractical and fanciful they may be, I'm sticking to my Romantic Ideals! #poetry
Pretty much spot-on, Tammy! I feel validated...
Backer survey sent. Late rewards still available, but time is running out.

I've learned to embrace my precursor and have fun with the dialogue I'm creating. AND I'm having fun with my own type of awareness. What a journey it's been! I remember being a teenager and honestly just playing with words, having no real idea of what I was doing. So glad to be here! #poetry
Well, this fall I shall start redacting poems from my BIG FILE in order to put the next book together. It's a wild idea and not everyone's on board with it. It's going to be my magnum opus.
I think it's weird and interesting how you can experience all that complicated philosophy and theory stuff while on a simple walk to the grocery store. And then come home and write all about it! #poetry
and as we grow older the whole concept of time becomes fraught...something to think about!
That's a heck of an evening! Two of the great ones...
Oh, a hat tip to @rodmannix.bsky.socialand @timothybachstuff.bsky.social for the grand reposts! Hope everyone has a lovely day. Let's get some good writing done!
Mental health issues. Academia. Weird interpretations. This one has it all!
way to go, buddy! so glad for you...
Thank you, Brenda!
Well, thanks so much for asking! I've been writing quite a bit...honestly 8 or 9 in the last four days...usually about ten per week...BUT if I didn't have anything to write I think I would probably start journaling immediately...this late flood started years ago after years of hard work...blessed!
Just grateful that the poems keep on coming...it's such fun to wrote them down...even the sad ones!
My submission process is simple, and maybe a bit irrational. First, I look for journals with cool names. And then I look for ones that don't require too much effort, like pagination or your name on every page (which I don't really know how to do). It's easy! And then I send out the poems...#poetry
I shall remember that...
It's surprising every time I hear it...
I don't know...it sounds interesting enough but then the Emperor piece? I can't imagine you hear that one every day...
Always glad to see new work from this old school chum!
yes, I think so! Thank you!
Well, I did learn one thing. Always put the weaker rhyme first. That way it won't look like you're just using that word because it rhymes. Will let you know if I learn anything else! #poetry
One of the wonderful things about having a wretched memory--for a poet--is that you find yourself repeating yourself, but using different language. So after a while the poems work like a long piece of music. At least, that's what I'm saying today! #poetry
"If you pitched me a comic ... with a witchy girlboss villain, ... and a teenage siren navigating high school drama alongside genuine cosmic stakes–I would say: yes, immediately, where do I sign?"

Thanks always to @rodmannix.bsky.social! There's something oddly poetic to this platform...it's a little like a dream, I think.
Thanks to @timothybachstuff.bsky.social and @fakeourway.bsky.social for the lovely reposts! Glad to know you all on here!
I might be a lot of things but elite ain't one of them. But a friend is taking me to dinner tonight so I won't complain. :)
