Alice Notley 🥀 She honored me with a short conversation and a selfie 8 years ago at AWP. I was such a young poet but I knew her work was monumental and absolutely essential for writers who take risks, disrupt form, & create poems like dreams, encounters, like treks to the underworld. #AliceNotley

"I loved to paint so much, I painted all day until I fell asleep. And then one day, for some reason, I just couldn’t paint anymore. I tried and tried, but nothing I did seemed any good... It just seemed like I had lost my ability." #KikisDeliveryService #StudioGhibli

While listening to Bluets on audiobook, as Maggie Nelson reads: "If we want to know what a phosphene is, we don't mash our fists into our eyes. We Google the word.", my Google Assistant actually responded and asked, "Hello, how can I help?" #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #WriterSky

“You, too, you wrote, longed for works that were notebooks, sketchbooks…notes for an unwritten manuscript, or, even better, some juvenilia, a marbled composition book…smaller and smaller fragments, tiny writing.” -Sofia Samatar, Opacities #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky, #WriterSky

hello Bluesky! Thinking today of Bluets by Maggie Nelson: "Admit that you have stood in front of a little pile of powdered ultramarine pigment in a glass cup at a museum...You might want to reach out and disturb the pile of pigment...first staining your fingers with it, then staining the world."
