It's a gorgeous day. Feeling gratitude for a lot of things today, really expensive and hopeful. I used to draw the eight of swords alllllll the time. Less and less, as I change my life. Thanks Cincinnati Review

I haven't been writing much at all in 2024 but tomorrow is my birthday and I'm ending a 15-year era in 2025 and I'm just basically maybe going to put another poetry manuscript together as a 39-yo. Eras ending is kinda crazy sad and completely thrilling at the same time. New ms title: Deep Cuts

I understand the urge to respond to the post-election Bluesky activity uptick by posting a poem for visibility and engagement, but I, an intellectual, am instead posting a poem for visibility and engagement

Now that EOY chaos is resolving itself a bit, I am having a moment of gratitude that my book has apparently sold 278+ since April. For a nobody debuting with a brand-new small press, I'm honestly stunned and feeling like a million bucks. Happy winter you'uns. @bellepointpress.bsky.social

This is happening tomorrow and Saturday! Never been to Louisville before, if you follow me and end up there, please say hi!!

Omg. I just did the thing where you stand in a line outside Aldi on November 1st so you can load up on their wine/beer/cheese/hot sauce/whatever Advent calendars 😭😭😭😭😭 I am now too fancy to even talk to, pls use my website's contact form to get in touch from here on out Thnk U

Wrote a fun thing on this book in my insta and it is too long for these micro sites. So I'm forced to scrap everything except the sock-shoe-book-beer combo

Local poetry podcasts. Like Big Ears, this podcast is one of the things that really clocks me when I remember it happens here. Poet Alan May and Knox County Public Library supported. Listen to me read poems at the-beat.captivate.fm

Feels like mom stuff is having a moment. I literally could not be happier, I am smiling this huge smile as the patriarchal fascist machine cranks the screws on everybody writing and elevating mom stuff rn

Anyways thank you @merliterary.bsky.social for all you do, all of it

Oh shit! Well it is a terrifying poem so maybe it deserves it

Been jealous of your all's Best of the Net nominations... finally got one fuck yeah 🍻

Wrote this a year ago, after Tennessee's abortion ban went into effect. Got any poems about reproductive rights I should read? I wanna read em!

I'm reading in Knoxville, Tennessee, on Thursday! I'm way rusty! But there will be really good hazy IPAs! No one will be sorry they came!!!

Never want to forget the feeling of seeing Barbie for first time

may there be many other times

Two faves from the Gerhard Richter & Vija Celmins exhibition in Hamburg. Celmins doing eerie domestic in the 60s

Hamburg and franzbrötchen

Dear God it would be nice to be floating in a clear blue sky instead of on elun musks twit. Fingers crossed. Feeling like a kite rn, waiting for string to get jerked back down to the ground. In the meantime here is a selfie of me with my book in my new jean jacket. JEAN JACKETS ROCK
