So I was waiting for the go ahead by my team to say THANK YOU for all the love and appreciation! This article aired last week and I located some print copies just yesterday but...what an honor to be slated as Aurora, Colorado's Poet Laureate. https://t.co/G4QhRWkTE4

When the kids don't go to bed on time 😭

Hey though, at least I have poems for next time if they apply. Excited regardless for @MERliterary to release their issue of this!

Let’s stop doomscrolling and get some writing done.

[Ahja Fox @aefoxx]

Preserving the history of my city is important to me and I'm glad that I got to share a little bit about that on AuroraTV Now.

@Gabino_Iglesias *snap, snap* I literally just set down my pen. Best believe I'll be picking it up here again shortly.

It's time to teach my daughter how to shoot an arrow
How to use a knife
How to hit the center of a target
        It's bloody work, but she should know

[Ahja Fox @aefoxx]

I'm choosing to hold my babies all day. It's hard not to give up faith on any big changes occuring within my lifetime but the hope rages strong for my children. It is up to us to teach them, to hand them the right tools for a better tomorrow. Determined to hold this prayer.

we have received some incredible submissions so far and with one week to go, we are especially keen to read some surreal prose poems, some poems fringed in loss or shorelines of sensuality or moorland of spiritshift. submit for one more week #poetrycommunity

[Ahja Fox @aefoxx]

@LawsonLit I appreciate the offer. I eventually got the patches on and was able to go to sleep. A catch up chat would be a great distraction. I've been wanting to schedule coffee with you even if it's just for a short while.

[Ahja Fox @aefoxx]

My back is literally killing me and I have been suffering all day because I haven't had anyone (except toddlers) to apply lidocaine patches. I know it's not all the usual chronicness. The stress is real and the concern for the future is real. Please take care of yourselves!

Seems very mom of me to have a "healthier" cheesecake recipe pasted in the same document I have a poem which also is about momming. Lol. #somethingswecantescape

Revision counts as writing, proofreading edits count as writing, writing down ideas counts as writing, writing an outline counts as writing, journaling counts as writing, writing a letter counts as writing, one sentence/line counts as writing. You’ve got this! #JustWriteNovember
