What happens when we “animate [our] privacy with another person’s magic”? I'm leading a virtual collaborative poem writing workshop via @poetshouse on September 20 and I hope you'll join / spread the word! There are need-based scholarships available.

I wrote a substack post celebrating the second anniversary of my book Gravitas by appreciating what might be its opposite: hijinks — post includes a link to my long awaited hijinks song playlist!

They signed it! I had a fantastic time collaborating with other poets. Laughed so hard I cried.
Unfortunately had to leave early because my asthmatic lungs hate whatever is in the air (maybe too much laughter & fun?)
Thank you @amyberko! You are a fantastic facilitator!
@chickadi When I was a teen in the 90s and saw bisexuality represented as something that didn't really exist (ahem Sex & the City), watching a movie with a characters who were attracted to men & women made me finally feel like ... I could exist. Problematic, but for me, a problematic fave.
Are you sitting on a manuscript of essay, memoir, fiction, hybrid/experimental prose? Send it to me: prose (at) fonografeditions (dot) com. I'd love to consider your work !
Exactly. We're in the "stuck in a nightmare" scenario we hypothesized in 2020 of constant new variants + low vax uptake.
It creates sustained risk for repeat-infection induced #LongCOVID. The lack of progress on LC means we're actually worse than our worst-envisioned scenario.
Dr @thrasherxy is an inspiration and a true friend to me and to Deerhoof. His treatment by those who seem to be prioritizing impressing the fascists they expect to be in power till the end of time is completely ridiculous.
Yeah! But be forewarned that anything ordered now will arrive after the Sealey Challenge because I'll be traveling until early Sept! Just ... buy Liam's book in a few weeks!
I am writing to you about a conversation that took place with one of the people under the rubble of his bombed home. Unfortunately, this is what happens to us every day in Gaza...

Have been pretty impressed in general with the Oh Crap! method of potty training - it’s worked well for us so far - but wtaf is this @OhCrapWithJamie?! Why does Dad get a two page “cheat sheet” at the back of a book I’m expected to read in full. I’m busy too!
Honored to have my covid poem in the new issue of @aSICKmagazine. This poem was my way of making sense of a dissonance that I've struggled to understand. I hope that you'll read it, even (especially!) if you're not chronically ill. Featuring a line from a @RealGayArbys tweet. :)
Finally! You can order @liammcurley's Mondo Bummer book, Up River! It's an honor to publish this excerpt from Liam's in-progress collection of lyrical prose, Wallkill. It's Liam's first chapbook and MB's last chapbook! Get your copy here:
