So good to see two of my new poems appear in print in the wonderful Chiron Review beside such fine writers. And my writing table mascot, Morrigan, really approves of the cover. #poetry

Okay, Wilmington, NC. they’re in need of a refresh. Who does good ink? #tattoo

Gonna be my smallest scar, but I’m digging the staples. Very Frankenstein-light. Happy Summerween.

Day 169! I read The Wolves of Melampus by @danielnterry.bsky.social published in @screendoorreview.bsky.social. A matter of life and death, with wolves at the door. Read my review here: mickstaniforth.wordpress.com/2026/06/18/s...

S/D/Y Jun 18 – The Wolves of Melampus by Daniel Nathan Terry – Screen Door Review

I saw Zuggie Tate perform #poetry at a Split This Rock event and was blown away. Now, less than a year later, I’m publishing her first book - ABOMINATION PINK - the very first in our BRIDGES SERIES.

All things considered, I’d rather be well and hiking in the mountains right now. #summercold

Hey @target you’re still dead to me for caving in to racists and homophobes, but thanks for the recycling material in the mail today.

Let’s make this simple. A man found guilty of fraud multiple times won’t release his tax returns. This same man, found guilty of rape, won’t release the Epstein Files. Okay, now all together: Why? Because he’s guilty. Everybody got it?

Has anyone checked this asshat for rabies?

Fragile snowflake ❄️ Watch Trump completely fall apart the second he is asked a basic question about his election lies. He calls the press "crooked," storms off like a toddler throwing a tantrum, & leaves Welker stranded. It’s past time to stop treating this dangerous, unhinged fraud seriously.

The wonderful publisher, Sibling Rivalry Press. I'm very proud to say they were the publisher of my 3rd book, CITY OF STARLINGS. Check them out.

🚨BREAKING: TRUMP JUST HAD HIS WORST MELTDOWN YET. Trump completely unravels when Kristen Welker challenged him on his California election claims. He called her "crooked" and "stupid," and abruptly WALKED OUT Thank you, Kristen for challenging his BULLSH*T!

Back with the babies after a week away.

Einstein Bagels coffee at the Atlanta Airport is truly vile. Absolute swill. You have been warned. You’re welcome.

Kicking back after some very sweaty, humid gardening—the tropical season has definitely kicked off. I guess I’ll dry off sometime in October.

Roses in the garden: Ebb Tide, At Last, and The Lady of Shalott.

And I thought I got excited about last night’s rain…

You’d tell me if the hat was too much, right?

Get ‘em, Massie!
