A lot of great surroundings and great art has been making me cry this week. 🥹
There are so many plays I want to audition for!!!!!!
We have a cast for my play for Maine Playwrights Festival! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Watching John Wick and it occurs to me that this might have all been avoided if Vigo had offered John a genuine apology. That phone call sucked. You could have at least shown up in person with a Russian casserole or something.

April will be filled with clarity.
April will be filled with momentum.
April will be filled with compassion.

Next week, I’ll be making the trip to Clinton, NY to write, read, and nap. An hour away from Clinton is Auburn, where Harriet Tubman’s memorial site is.
As I continue to work on my prose project on pilgrimages to death sites related to suicide and mental health, I want to be sure I visit her site.
since my book came out, I’ve done or will have readings in Seattle, San Francisco, Tacoma, Portland, Boston, New York, Providence, New Orleans, Spokane, and Berkeley. with more to come I hope! bring me to your city to read!!
writing (good) poems is hard, but writing *about* poems is also hard. maybe especially about poems you admire because you're trying to explicate, not just praise
The Prince of Egypt! Coming soon to @youaregood.bsky.social!
How nerdy am I??? I reread the Book of Exodus and went on Internet deep dives in preparation for a conversation with @alexsteed.bsky.social we’ve been waiting to have for TWO YEARS!!!
So poking is back on Facebook! 😂
actually I disagree—live as slowly & easefully as possible, grow old, and find beauty in aging & decaying!
@uzamakij.bsky.social
Throwback to the time I found out that Ryan Coogler and Michael B Jordan were making a vampire movie because of you.
It more than lived up to the hype!!!
