Scenes from last night’s poetry reading in Atlantic City. Read two of my poems, “Temptation at 3 a.m” and an excerpt from “America You Are Broken.” Heard outstanding poets and saw some enchanting art.

You can grind away and fail, but as long as you’ve written something you succeeded. The most important thing is you write for the love of it, that pushing yourself to new plateaus of creativity is part of the journey. Failure is a way you level up. It’s a pit stop, not a destination. #5amwritersclub
