Pillars, my 4th collection of poetry, is now available for purchase on Amazon in paperback, hardback and ebook. Written in memory of my father, who passed away on February 18th, 2023, this collection is the most difficult thing I’ve ever put to print.

@AnthonyLaFauci Bend over, Cowboy, the peppercorn’s coming in hot.

@BookSpotlight You should check out the reboot of Lost in Space on Netflix. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[Jonathan Sima @JonSimaPoet]

Just a reminder that I have seven collections of self-published poetry. So… buy my books? I don’t know what else to do to make the algorithm like me.

@AnthonyLaFauci Same here! It’s been far too long.

[Jonathan Sima @JonSimaPoet]

Forgot to post about it, but I finished my first-time read of The Hobbit!

@readingfromeden Self-published poet, here. If it bothers you that you can’t own an ebook, please purchase a physical copy. That way, you both own it forever, and are supporting a writer who put every effort into making it. Books take months or years to write — don’t insult us by stealing them.

@NatashaCL7 Nearly done with my first-time read of The Hobbit. It is an absolute delight!

[Jonathan Sima @JonSimaPoet]

@JasonP479 @JoshPhillipsPhD Around that age I read To Kill a Mockingbird, so it isn’t quite outlandish to suggest it.

@JoshPhillipsPhD As a child, I grew up on Treasure Island, The Neverending Story, and The Indian in the Cupboard series (the latter two are horrid book-to-film adaptations, I might add). Injun Joe in Tom Sawer (sillily enough) gave me nightmares back then, as I always imagined him lurking.

@AnthonyLaFauci Alongside all of us, good sir.

@usedgov It looks like your department could use a bit more of those skills, there, buddy, ’cause this is just sad on so many levels.

[Jonathan Sima @JonSimaPoet]

@deidrejowen It gets worse the longer I stare at it…

[Jonathan Sima @JonSimaPoet]

@SketchesbyBoze Would it please you to know that I am almost through a first-time read of The Hobbit, and finding it most delightful?

[Jonathan Sima @JonSimaPoet]

And … another event for the books!

[Jonathan Sima @JonSimaPoet]

My seventh collection of poetry, Faces, is now available on Amazon in Paperback and ebook. Written anticipating my twentieth high school reunion, this has been a somber journey, one which I hope will not disappoint.

@Sophie_Bowns You’ve got this, Sophie!

@SaffronAsteria According to all things interwebs, French writer Honoré de Balzac would consume 50 cups of coffee a day, and go so far as to chew on dry coffee beans. I think we are all amateur caffeine consumers by comparison.
