Today is scary. My first poem has officially been published to Rust & Moth! It’s been such a weird and long road to get here but I’m a published writer (of sorts) now. I don’t know what to do now but be hopeful that you enjoy it. Thanks. Bless.

Screenshot of a web page. The words are a poem by Edith Krone titled “at work, the new guy asks” “you prefer she, right? i want to say that it is not really a preference, it just is, my life is not made up of preferences but if it was, i would simply prefer to not be here. i would prefer a cliffside, a Van Gogh landscape, a menagerie of colors so bright that my eyes could not focus, but mostly, i prefer to not see. if forced to, id prefer to see the world through my eyes and through my eyes i am six feet of stardust and Tennessee sunshine. we heard how in Van Gogh's Starry Night, you could tell the time through the stars but around here we mostly guess. in the night humidity, we tell time by the cricket's chirp and distant city lights--Marlboro smoke rising in place of us.”

#dogyard is back with our last editor interview for a while. Over the next week, we'll be posting some fun stuff and hanging out! Even if you hate my lame interview, please take the time to thank our editors and those that helped get us here. It's been a blessing and so much love all of our mutts!

The semester starts tomorrow. I’ll update this thread with teachings and discussions about each book as we discuss them throughout the semester! I’m missing a few that are in transit or on pre-order but about 18 books this semester for two classes and then a workshop that only has one. #booksky

Today, #dogyard debuted our classical section. In my intro, I identified the importance of literary heritage. It truly means the world to me to know that I am apart of something larger than myself. With the arts being attacked, it is important to think of the past and the future we CAN build.

So blessed for the reception. This mag is only a month and a half old and was only an idea that started in April. A great and dedicated staff that truly cares about literature and the work that we do. Love love love the #writingcommunity.

I’m heartbroken to hear of the passing of Andrea Gibson. I’m blessed for the door they opened and paved the way for Spoken Word and performance poets. Andrea’s work in Button Poetry was a god-send for my teenage years and really allowed me to see this light that we all work in. Thank you, Andrea.
