I love this. 'Inescapably myself' is perfect.

[R. O. Kwon 권오경 @rokwon]

steadily getting going with the first draft of a new novel & dismayed to find that I am still trapped in the same mind as ever, here I am again, plagued by the same old obsessions, inescapably myself

@marthalobrien Congratulations! 👏👏👏

@postcardsfrmv Not sure how far back you want to go. Katherine Mansfield and Elizabeth Taylor are masters of the form. Angela Carter. Your list shades contemporary, so maybe Adam Johnson, Lucy Caldwell. Sounds like a great class!

I had the great pleasure of presenting some new research last week to an enthusiastic and perceptive audience at the R. S. Thomas and M. E. Eldridge Poetry and Arts Festival in Aberdaron, Wales.

@CoachWillVoigt @austin_spurs @spurs @kyoungbball @BYUMBB I’m a Cougs fan and also an English professor who is an admirer of your mom’s poetry, so you could say I’m a big fan of the Voigts generally!

@beingvarious @commapress @connie_potter1 Oh! I wish I would have known you were going to be in Tennessee, Lucy. I would have tried to arrange something here as well!
