Happy pub day to @rickirobin.bsky.social—@porphyrypress.bsky.social is lucky to be your publisher! (Hilarious about the unwitting woodpiles duet.)
It’s always a good sign when you and your publisher take book pics in the wood pile, independently and with zero coordination 😅
If you’ve already purchased my book, THANK YOU, & check out the other porphyry titles! Discount code below!

Caught this launch at the Spokane library before it’s time to return to AK… poet Laura Read read from her latest, THE SERIOUS WORLD (Boa Editions) and former WA State Poet Laureate Kathleen Flenniken read from DRESSING IN THE DARK from Lynx House Press. @auntiesbooks.bsky.social sold lots of books!

Both myself and @porphyrypress.bsky.social were kicked off both Meta platforms with no warning and no recourse for no reason last week while traveling in Montana. Time to suss out Substack and Bluesky as alternatives. Cheers to new horizons!

Unhappy to report that both myself and Porphyry Press were kicked off of both Meta platforms with no warning and no recourse for no reason. So! Hello Bluesky. Join me in Fairbanks on Nov. 19 to launch @rickirobin.bsky.social's new book, GHOSTS OF DISTANT TREES!
I know we all hate M*ta, AND it's still where a lot of stuff happens, including book promotion & sales. Unfortunately, my publisher, Porphyry Press, was just kicked off FB & IG for unknown reasons🤨
So, a reminder: it's a perfect time to order ⬇️ or a local bookstore!
