Do you like poetry? Me neither. Buy my poetry book. 🥰
I’ve been a little facetious about this book since it came out, but it’s two older OOP chapbooks that are some of my favorite poems I’ve written.

Sometimes a review for one of my books pops up, and I go, “Oh yeah, I write.” 🪦
I might have to take my publisher hat off for a few days and finish the story I started last month.

Just got interviewed about ONE OF US. When asked why I'm doing it, I compared myself to George Mallory, who said he climbed Everest "because it was there!" I jokingly said this was "because it wasn't."
This... is a lie. I responded by making a "uhhhhhhh" sound like Tina Belcher for 20 minutes.

TFW, you realize that your zine wasn't on your webpage for god-knows-how-long.
If you liked "I Preferred His Underground Stuff," you might enjoy this one... Or not, thems the breaks, it's a poetry chapbook. I'm not going to provide a money-back warranty. 🚬
