Any other poets have a spouse who doesn't really "get" poetry?

Here's my latest published poem from The Indianapolis Review, entitled "I Take My Husband to Readings by Award-Winning Poets." Thank you, editor @nataliesolmer.bsky.social

I read a 225-page book yesterday, practically in one sitting. I can't remember the last time I had the opportunity to do that. It was glorious! (Props to my husband for taking the kids to the playground for a couple hours.) ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ“š

Polly Pocket - Lunch Ticket Jarmul's poem "Polly Pocket" reveals the persistency of childhood's often painful moments even as we become adults.

I've been so busy having summer fun with my kids, I almost forget to share that I have a new poem published in Lunch Ticket, about a childhood favorite toy: Polly Pocket!

When @mycoachart.bsky.social and I were regulars at the Tiffin Inn way back in college, I loved the random, rotating lineup of friends who would roll through! So having the interspectacular @bethanyjarmul.bsky.social drop a refill from the corner booth just makes me sooo happy (and nostalgic).

Do you ever just stand in awe of vastness of the universe? I'm thrilled to have a new poem up with The Inflectionist Review about just that feeling!

I've been thinking about HOPE lately. How it's a radical act. How I want to live in it, to write from it. How so often, I've failed at that. But I'll try again. And again.

I was asked "How can I invest in my writing if I have no money?"
My answer: read craft books & anthologies (local library & Libby app), listen to writing podcasts, look out for free events/classes, join a writing group, and most importantly: establish a regular writing practice.
