Here's alt-text for the Madam Stryzga image you uploaded:
"Vintage Quaker Oats advertisement parody with 'DO YOU EAT' at the top in large serif font. Left side reads 'ANCIENT' vertically, right side reads 'MONSTROCITIES' vertically. Center features a detailed black and white engraving of a demonic creature with horns, spiky hair, sitting cross-legged surrounded by various objects. Bottom text reads 'IF NOT * * * * * YOU SHOULD / THEY ARE / THE BEST' in serif font."

Even if I feel behind, or pressure to hit my insane goals, or whatever, I haven’t forced it.

I think the other recommendations are good too: change of scenery is a big one. I also am a big fan of engaging with different types of media from your usual. Art museums also do wonders. 3/3

If I have to force myself to do *anything*, it’s a bad day not a good one. I’ve been flirting with burnout a lot this year despite my goals and what I have been able to get written. I think the only reason it’s been a flirtation and not a catastrophe is I haven’t forced myself. 2/

I’m sorry you are still feeling jammed, friend! It’s a shit feeing!

Late to the reply party but echoing what everyone is saying—rest is usually the top ticket of what helps me get through it.

For me, being unable to write is the canary in the coal mine of burnout. 1/

My flash piece, "Marianne in an Unlit Bar on the Outer Curve of Human Space," is out in @neonhemlock.bsky.social's Baffling Magazine!

It's one of my favorite recent stories and they did an amazing job with it!

I’ve had the same editor since 1967. Many times he has said to me over the years or asked me, Why would you use a semicolon instead of a colon? And many times over the years I have said to him things like: I will never speak to you again. Forever. Goodbye. That is it. Thank you very much. And I leave. Then I read the piece and I think of his suggestions. I send him a telegram that says, OK, so you’re right. So what? Don’t ever mention this to me again. If you do, I will never speak to you again

“In order for me to write poetry that isn’t political,

I must listen to the birds.

And in order to hear the birds,

the warplanes must be silent”

The Trees and the Frogs and the Sun on the Water by M. R. Robinson After nine years married to a poet—ten come midsummer—Rosemarie can translate every noise. The sound of poetry being born makes her feel warm, like a crackling fire on a winter night.

I've got a new story online now at @talesfeathers.bsky.social! After a couple of bleak and gruesome publications in a row from me, this one is the opposite, probably the sweetest thing I will ever write: a tender little sapphic love story set in a world where poetry is (literally) magic 🌳 🐸 ☀️ 🌊
