I am so sad about Dolly Parton, and I don't even like country music. I think I will rewatch "Dumplin'" tonight to be reminded of how she radiated goodness...

As a warm-up to ModPo, I have managed to work poetry into a LinkedIn post on financial stability of the higher education sector and the importance of international students. I am pleased. www.linkedin.com/posts/suzann... #poetry #educationpolicy #economics @edusky.bsky.social

Light is making a flip phone!!! Be still my beating heart.

Did you know that college and literary journals share institutional structures? Read my view of how @the-engine-idling.bsky.social serves as an example for those in other industries: www.linkedin.com/posts/suzann... #industrialorganization #literature #poetry

One new issue. Two different collaborations. Three authors with works published by @lachlanjmcdougall.bsky.social It's a good day. @monaiv.bsky.social @cjprince.bsky.social

Looking for a short, evocative, and sometimes funny summer read while daydreaming on the beach? My book, No Paper Today fits the bill! Available here: a.co/d/11w4xT1

For those following along with my College Board project, some thoughts: bit.ly/44dfQxH. #financialaid #highered @edusky.bsky.social

In my experience many people need to hear this:

Congaree Land Trust because you can't grow back history that's been built up over long time. #MidlandsGives2026 #conservation

The South Carolina Philharmonic, because music predates language. Plus, the Phil brings people to the music, and music to the people. #MidlandsGives2026 #artsforall #classical

Columbia Marionette Theater for being the best place in Columbia for children's first exposures to the arts! #MidlandsGives2026 #puppets

And we're off! #MidlandsGives2026. Start with LiteracySC, because so much starts with reading! Read about them here: bit.ly/4tho2an

I'm delighted to announce that you can read some of my new joint work in Engine Idling's upcoming "Collaboration" issue. One work I wrote with @monaiv.bsky.social, and the other with the late great @princesscj.bsky.social #poetry

The world so absurd #lepoissondavril comment faire? #poetry #AprilFools #Kafka

I can't think of a better tribute to C J Prince's spirit and work than this generous gesture by @lachlanjmcdougall.bsky.social. My copy is ordered and on its way, and yours should be, too. #poetry

This Saturday (12–1 PM) marks my first public poetry reading! 📖 I'll be reading from "No Paper Today" and sharing a preview of my book with C.J. Prince (Sept 2026), both available through @lachlanjmcdougall.bsky.social Please join us on Zoom! Details and link below. #Poetry #WritingCommunity

What started with missing WSJ deliveries turned into a book - and now a ModPo virtual reading. March 28, 12–1 ET. Join us!

Great work by a poet who sounds like no one else! #poetry #reading.

not my mood

ChatGPT, which usually responds to queries with third-person narration or second-person direct address, just used the first person in responding to me. It says it evaluated incorrectly the first time. I'm a bit creeped out TBH. #AI #technology #stillnotsentient

I love that there was a string octet accompanying #Coco for "Lift Every Voice and Sing" at #SuperbowlLX #classicalmusic

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

The end of the year is an appropriate time for reflection, including pondering how years roll out while one pores over a newspaper- or doesn't. You can do that with my book, No Paper Today, available here: #https://a.co/d/11w4xT1 #books #NewYear #poetry

Overwhelmed by holiday shopping and online extravaganzas and still need gifts? My new book on the joy of morning newspapers, "No Paper Today," may offer a moment of respite and contemplation. Available here: a.co/d/11w4xT1 #reading #poetry @wsj.com

I know chapbooks aren't normal public library fare, so I'm thrilled that Richland County Public Library in SC has my book, No Paper Today, available to lend. #poetry #newspapers #ColumbiaSC

It's Cyber Monday- the perfect time to buy my new book, No Paper Today, that celebrates the value of ink, paper, and the daily newspaper! 😉 Available here: a.co/d/11w4xT1 #reading #poetry @edusky.bsky.social

This would make a great Christmas or Hannukkah gift for the newspaper readers in your life! #BlackFriday #newspaper #stockingstuffer

Catch-22, they need to read Heller:

Tried to send a copy of my book #NoPaperToday to the UK and got this notice: This item is flagged as a prohibited item and should not be shipped. Obscene publications and unlawful indecent images​. I'm flummoxed, but you can judge for yourselves, available here: a.co/d/aDklBEq #poetry #FreeSpeech

Just finished reading a wonderful new poetry collection by @monaiv.bsky.social that you can download for free. #poetry

Working without pay- I thought that was called #slavery.

In an interview Tom Hanks explained his mask wearing by noting “I’ve had Covid enough in my life, I don’t need to do that again,” and he is right, for he knows “life is like a box of chocolates you never know what you’re going to get” so you should try not to keep getting Covid.

I am grateful for all the music and musings I have heard because of Fred Child. I wish him well, but will miss him at the helm of #PerformanceToday terribly. #ClassicalMusic

All classrooms should build their own boxes as a STEM, civics, and health merge. #CorsiRosenthalBoxesAcrossAmerica #cleantheairweshare

A copy of my book, No Paper Today, was given away to a random caller last week during Modpo, and the recipient used to be a paperboy! Talk about #fate! #newspapers #poetry

I'm sorry to report that my delivery difficulties continue- there may need to be a follow-up volume. But ever the optimist, I still subscribe.

Profoumd irony: I can count on a copy of my book, No Paper Today, arriving on schedule- but not my Journal #poetry #newspapers

Congrats to a well-deserved trio! From WSJ: Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt have been awarded the Nobel Prize.. for their work explaining how innovation and what economists call “creative destruction” drive economic growth. Note that growth comes from process, not fiat.
