Hi Pearl—so nice to hear from you (& see your chap-making updates). I'm thrilled about that mRb review❗

Sadly, I won't be at the fair, though I'd love to. That's bc I'm now in Lethbridge, AB, & impromptu travels are much more complicated... But I'll dream with fairs.

Hugs from the coulees ☺️

ps. #LinkedIn has ICE ads too, sadly...

Even though I still need LinkedIn's free account for jobs, they too won't be getting any more $ from me.

Love this—how these images add lyric layers to the words, instead of reducing possibilities...

Congrats & looking forward to episode 2!

OMG, thank YOU (a brilliant piece of writing & truly public service)!

So rare to see journals publish chapbook reviews—even rarer that a critic would do that with kindness & depth 💚

Since @hanvanderhart.bsky.social suggested the dad, I’ll shoutout Franz, the son ☺️:

“and I am the rain

and the others all
around you, and the loneliness you love”

Also, "to[o] busy" to proof their cover, hmm? 😉

I say publish it (on a slog day) but don’t tell them just to see if they actually read it… 😈
