Last year I received one of the most intimidating and meaningful invitations of my life, to contribute an essay to this @WestBranchMag retrospective on Brigit Pegeen Kelly’s SONG. https://t.co/LFdNcsbFHu

I’m sorry, but I fucking hate summer. I mean I like summer for a little bit but then I’m like just give me the cold and dead trees and then the snow. Fuck summer. If your name is Summer I’m not mad at you.

This past winter, I was invited to read a poem at @UMich President Santa Ono's inauguration and given the impression that I could determine the poem's content. I pitched a poem about my single mother returning to college in her 40s as a non-traditional student. 🧵

@chloe_alberta @NarrativeMag @notsumatra Thanks so much Chloe, it means a lot! 💕

[Julia J. McDaniel @juliajwrites]

Thank you @NarrativeMag editors for including this sprawling poem about bats and bodies. And thank you @notsumatra for helping me figure out this poem back in 2020! ❤️

[Narrative Magazine @NarrativeMag]

To hibernate, then, is only a way

of delaying need, the need for need. The body going on with its fits
of being. Interrupting.

My thanks to @nickripatrazone and the rest of @Image_Journal. I am so, so grateful to have found a home for this essay with you all. In this piece, I consider the question of God’s calling and the calling of literature (calls to submissions, calls to readers)

[Julia J. McDaniel @juliajwrites]

Absolutely stoked to read this issue of Image including my brilliant friend @HereAndNow44

@JosephLandi Thanks so much!

[Julia J. McDaniel @juliajwrites]

Really honored to be a finalist this year - especially for a 10 page poem about Sleeping Beauty, narrative control, and (un)motherhoods that I wasn’t sure would ever find a home. Can’t wait to read the winners’ and fellow finalists’ poems in the fall ❤️

[Hanif Abdurraqib @NifMuhammad]

there were a few light bulbs in my house that went out over the summer. inconsequential enough to live with -- bulbs in room with other lights, one in a small hallway. Today, with the looming early darkness, I changed all of them, and one that had been flickering a bit.

[Julia J. McDaniel @juliajwrites]

This poem was my first ever acceptance and I couldn’t dream of a better home. https://t.co/STKU8PBLv7
