An ode to the future (not without its wistfulness!), this poem blesses what is ever-renewable: our love for the young—and for the winged seeds of maple trees.

three men are standing on a balcony and one has a beard ALT: three men are standing on a balcony and one has a beard

It's somewhat troubling to contemplate the temporary surge of moral superiority I feel when using "per" instead of the rife but completely incorrect "as per." #editorsky #literarysky

This poem is an ode to our shared human predicament—both lowly and holy. May we bear it together with relish and reverence.

I'm currently writing a stoner fiction about a guy and his lesbian friend who get tangled up in a crypto billionair's effort to foce AI on people and was wondering if anyone might be willing to read what I've got so far. #literarysky #stoner #fiction

A Literary Cat for Every Day of the Year Crafty companions and mewling muses - the finest felines in literature Tara Richardson

20 NOVEMBER The vote was taken at once, and it was agreed by an overwhelming majority that rats were comrades. There were only four dissentients, the three dogs and the cat, who was afterwards discovered to have voted on both sides. - George Orwell, Animal Farm 21 NOVEMBER Japanese poet and writer Takashi Hiraide was born on this day in 1950. Today's cat is Chibi - a jewel of a cat' - the star of his bestselling book The Guest Cat. For me, Chibi is a friend with whom I share an understanding, and who just happens to have taken on the form of a cat.

Lovely to see @charlottesquires.bsky.social today for a catch up.

New reading material…

I love the Orwell one, even though it’s technically for yesterday.

It opens more dynamically: "We hit Denver with the gas gauge kissing empty and the Hudson coughing dust from a thousand desert miles. It was that wild, holy, and crazy time when Dean and I were inseparable, two halves of a lost and found coin, and Marylou was with us, a sad-eyed angel in a too-tight sweater. The money was gone, spent on gas and cheap wine and a wild night in a Tucson motel that ended with a fistfight and a sprint to the car. Now we are broke ..."

And the Beat goes on

In my fictional principality of Ardennes, famed for its archers, every 2 years a series of elimination trials begins.
The ultimate prize?

What am I proud of?
I'm proud of being self-published!
I don't see it as "less than," but MORE
Not only ALL of it—writing, editing, formatting, cover, marketing, you name it—done 100% BY A HUMAN, it's all done by the SAME human, me! 🤣
Unique & Original🏹
