#PoetryCommunity #Poem #poetrysky #birthdays #fiftyfour #lonelywritersclubnw #realmaxmagenta Sorry for the repost, sometimes I use the same word and don't notice until way later. This one is better, I think. TLDR: One more time around the sun; Glad to have made it here once again...
Check in: I had to take a break for a while and focus on my day job. Stinks, but it's what needs to happen right now. I am happy to report that I am still finding time to put the finishing touches on my second book of poetry. Soon. ~Max
What a lovely afternoon in Milwaukee - Such a generous space with such stately aesthetics to set a backdrop for such a spirit-lifting series of moments. I loved every second of it. Thank you all who stopped off at our table! #MZF #realmaxmagenta #lonelywritersclubnw

It is with a sad tone that I must report that the LWCNW's association with Bruiseb3rry as our resident artist has come to a close. We wish her well, but as per her wishes, we are ending our partnership (effective immediately). Our loss is your gain: #winterofdiscontent #lonelywritersclubnw
Post an album that was important to you when you were 11. ~ I had it on cassette tape and literally played it so much I wore it out...

I recently was published in the 'Inflated Graveworm,' an independent publication out of Ohio; This is from issue #34, entitled 'dark oak' And yes, that cover is sick AF. #lonelywritersclubnw #realmaxmagenta #inflatedgraveworm
Issue #2 is finally in the can! Took a bit to massage it over the finish line, but we wound up where we needed to. I'll make it available digitally by the end of week. More to come then. #winterofdiscontent #lonelywritersclubnw #whatislove
Started a new day job this week @ the local comic/game shop. It's only been a few days and I now know more about Pokemon than I ever thought possible. Imagine what I'll know next week.
Issue #2 is nearly in the can, just a few more pages to finalize and we're dunzo. So proud of this issue, for real. One of the best things I've ever been a part of putting out there. #winterofdiscontent #issue2 #lonelywritersclubnw
LonelyWritersClub (ChiMetroNW)@lonelywritersclub.bsky.social · 7mo agoSneak peek on the bruiseb3rry cover art for Issue #2 ! Drops unofficially on 2/1/26, debuts at Slamshop II on February 21, 2026. 40 pages of art, poetry, photography, and other creative mayhem. #winterofdiscontent #issue2 #lonelywritersclubnw

Life can sometimes be a series of small elegant unspoiled moments; I find my strength to go on in exactly these. #writingprompt #inspiration #Writing #WriterCommunity #PoetryCommunity #Poem #poetrysky #blueskypoetry #poetry #prompt #mpprompt @malformed-poetry.bsky.social
*Not written by AI, you can tell by the poorly constructed sentences, awkward lack of capitalization and punctuation, and multiple typos. **I'm especially sorry about the typos #lonelywritersclubnw #realmaxmagenta #sorryabouthetypos #PoetryCommunity #Poem #poetrysky #blueskypoetry #poetry
I wish you all love and great success for 2026. I stay humble in the face of each one of your acts of generosity and grace. Thank you all, each and every one. #NYE #thankyou #lonelywritersclubnw #realmaxmagenta
