For David Lynch

RIP David Lynch

David Lynch inspired my poetry and fiction, entertained and disturbed me in equal measure, and was the textbook definition of an auteur. His loss is immeasurable.

Love extended deadlines! Time to write and submit more Stevie Nicks poems.
Megan and I have heard from quite a few poets that they need a little more time, so we’ve extended the deadline for the Stevie Nicks poetry anthology until Feb. 12. Send us those poems, you wild hearts! 🔮🕊️🎩 madvillepublishing.com/submission/

The “Sugarcane” documentary is devastating to watch. The filmmakers’ decision to frame the horrifying discoveries with long silences and wide vistas of British Columbia is beautiful and chilling. You won’t be able to stop thinking about it.

If I see one more goddamn social media conspiracy post about drones and UFOs, I’m taking hostages. Get a life, people.

Many thanks to South Carolina Review for publishing “Ev’ry Time We Say Goodbye” in the new Fall 2024 issue. I’m out of the submission loop now, so if this is the last one then I’ve gone out on a high note and with a fantastic journal. ❤️ #poetry
