Who (besides me) are haikus/senryus writers/experts in here?

I wanted to ask you all something quite important for my current WIP as a poet.
You can either message me or comment here!
#poetry #haiku #senryu #haikuwriter #senryuwriter

I’m looking for beta readers for my upcoming poetry collection, you can DM me if you can and want to read a 200-ish pages long poetry book this month, providing detailed feedback.
This is an exclusive opportunity for poets I trust to access the book a few weeks early!

Controversial question: what’s your personal stance on DMs here? There is something I will want to message you about next month, and I really need to know your DM preference. Should I skip you? Do you read your DMs?

Tell me in the comments!

P.S. it has a lot to do with this…

Voting closes September 23rd, so please go support your favorite indie authors ASAP!

Controversial topic:
Social media growth for indie authors.

Remember this:
✨ FRIENDSHIP IS (SALES) MAGIC ✨
Personal connections are how you can find your audience.

We all know follow trains do more harm than good for most, so here’s what actually works for me:
Befriending readers.

Okay, confession time. I might’ve gone a little too far with the joining starter packs recently, and I don’t know half the people in here.

Please, if you see this and we haven’t talked before, tell me a little about yourself and what we have in common.
Hugs 🤗🤗

What social media do you use, besides this? I’d love to support you, I’m a cozy indie author and poet who enjoys making friends.

Also, who else should I support here? Thanks for the recommendations!

Here’s my Linktree if you want to check out what I do!

I’m sorry for not being here much
but I don’t have many spoons
for another social media.
I hope you understand
and stick around for the quiet
but valuable moments ahead.
Thanks for your support,
new friends.
I hope to meet more of you
along the way.
This is the apology poem

Today is my debut book's third birthday! Three years since I published Sensibilidad, my Spanish poetry collection for highly sensitive people.
Fairies, found family, and lots of feels.
I explain it all in my new instagram reel. Support me there too if you can! www.instagram.com/reel/DM0UGo4...
