Threw a party in honor of the book that made me an author. Lived out my dream of having my book cover on a cake. CALL MY BODY A CAUTIONARY TALE is now out from @thirtywestph.com

Every living day we exist with ai, is a day of poems unread :’(

Thirty West published four chapbooks officially on Friday + wrapped a gauntlet of 5 literary celebrations this on Saturday. Tired, fulfilled, seeking rest. Here’s a small creek + waterfall. Hope it brings you serenity.

I’ll never forget in like 2018 I hosted a reading out of state and an audience member suggested I need more charisma (assumingely in good faith) I’ve gone on to cohost Bring a Blanket and launch books for cool authors for many years. Was it out of spite or a gradual building of my skills? Idk!

We <3 indie book reviews. In this one, Matthew Gasda's "Stranger Beauty" is reviewed by Hugh Blanton. A debut by both the author and the reviewer in Afterimages. This cover is pretty, too. Get to readin', maybe to buyin' this nice book. thirtywest.substack.com/p/artificial...

One thing they don’t tell you about book festivals as a vendor is that you slowly morph into a bastion amongst hundreds, or even thousands, of people in a matter of hours and then you’re locked into your curated universe among many other pocket universes and that’s magic baby

CALL MY BODY A CAUTIONARY TALE is currently printing! Out on October 23 from @thirtywestph.com. Get yourself a copy of my spooky book for spooky season: www.thirtywestph.com/shop/p/callm...

1 bad festival is not your fault. 2? There may be something else. If you’re a new vendor to the public, observe the pricing, ask the organizer for tips, and be flexible hourly. Weather and location matters, too. Hate to see you quit before you have enough data to know a problem.

BTS from @collsbookfest TW chapbooks were the star of the show after a quiet summer. So many lovely patrons, vendors, & tons of books. Was good to be next to @stanchion.bsky.social, see old friends, & repeat readers.Thank you to the most literary town in New Jersey and see you next year.
