Linford Detweiler

Try to praise the mutilated world.

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

I’m in.

[Over the Rhine @overtherhine]

Come on people now.

[ANNE LAMOTT @ANNELAMOTT]

.@Sarcasticluther, God is busy washing Her dog, and asked me to be your caseworker. If you want to have loving feelings, do really loving things. God’s Love, We Deliver: Go flirt w/old people; give away a bunch of $5 bills; buy yourself a cute pair of socks & send us a photo. xox

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Everything yes. A beautiful read and tribute...

[Joe Henry @JoeHenryMusic]

my friend, the heroic irish novelist colum mccann, honors me beyond measure as he premieres another song, "green of the afternoon," from my forthcoming album.

@just_evans_ To quote a favorite songwriter, @linfordjerome , "Writing changes us." It will never lead nowhere; it will never be pointless. Write. Remember all the posthumously famous writers who wrote their entire lives for the joy & necessity of it. Creation of art itself is life-giving.

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Already planning 2020!

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Yes please. #cayamo

[Over the Rhine @overtherhine]

Well folks, this is a special one. Happy to be getting back on board for this musical adventure at sea with an incredible lineup. This will be our 3rd @Cayamo cruise, and we always come away inspired. Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces. Join us! https://t.co/SKItHl9g6O

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Thanks, Richard!

[richardabailey @richardabailey]

I've been listening to this one for several weeks now. @linfordjerome & @KarinBergquist continue to write music for the whole person. Give the album a stream...then buy it and support real people making real music

[All Eyes Media @AllEyesMedia]

.@overtherhine’s “Love & Revelation” is "an album of loping ballads and probing lyricism that addresses grief, loss and what it means to be an American in a conflicted country” and is streaming now via @RScountry’s exclusive premiere! https://t.co/6TahtN1itQ

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Noted!

[Andy Peterson @andy_peterson]

Making my annual appeal that someone please reissue @overtherhine's 'The Darkest Night of the Year' album for vinyl.

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Lookin’ forward!

[Over the Rhine @overtherhine]

Good news: Memorial Hall was able to release an additional 20 tickets for each of our three shows this weekend, December 21-23. Get them while they last! With very special guest @leighannenash Links: https://t.co/OQDjc5vLzR

[Over the Rhine @overtherhine]

I was napping before the show in Cleveland last night, and Bradley snapped a photo.

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Since winter time has arrived for real... tie a rope around my waist, I’m going in. (It’s been 12 years.)

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Gonna be oh so good.

[Over the Rhine @overtherhine]

Labor Of Love Special: Early bird tickets for Nowhere Else Festival 2019 are half price, but the sale ends soon! Get ‘em while they last. Join us for a weekend of kickass beauty. You might just be surprised by Joy. Or a kitten. https://t.co/dSOJ0Vu5NI

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Word.

[Joe Henry @JoeHenryMusic]

I hope my broadcast of this not unseemly, but I want to share that my first-ever poem to see publication is scheduled to appear in the upcoming issue of the New Yorker. It is no small thing to me.

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

I was dictating a text into my phone to Karin. I asked if she would pick up “a couple of bags of sugarless halls” (cough drops) and Siri perfectly mis-typed “a couple of bags of sugary assholes.” Was it my Midwestern accent? Or a Siri mic drop?

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

Her.

[David Dark's Coordinated Campaign (of Love) @DavidDark]

Skipping straight to the title of Christ is a popular way of reducing Jesus to a symbol that demands nothing of us. No loving of enemy, no sharing of resources, no actual gospel. He becomes a fully sentimentalized ghost friend who blesses our violence as God's will.

[Linford Detweiler @linfordjerome]

House wren nest.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

I have never sent a tweet to the world...here goes

The girl in this photo is now "missing" & the @realDonaldTrump administration will not reveal her name, location or if she is safe. @RedCross or @amnestyusa should see her

Please RT this @realDonaldTrump - WHERE IS THIS GIRL???
