Do yourself a huge favorite and listen to @jonathanin2k.bsky.social speak about writing and regionalism! His eloquence translates across both writing and speaking. I’m gong to start calling him Mr. Arizona. 🌵😍

I had the chance to speak with Jennifer Jenkins, Director of the Southwest Center at the University of Arizona, about THE LOWEST BASIN: ARIZONA STORIES and Arizona Literary Regionalism for the Journal of the Southwest Radio Hour. I hope you’ll check it out!

This one stings. Thanks to Jeff/Stanchion for putting out so much great weird beautiful writing, and supporting writers and books/magazines. This is how it goes in our weird little world. It's a bummer but also time to say thanks and celebrate all Jeff and Stanchion accomplished.

“I want Artemis for my spirit, but she is aloof. She is all strength and stoicism where I am soft flesh and zero willpower. Artemis is like man to me. Like Hemingway.” Love these moments @allisonfieldbell.bsky.social captures here.

I love what @sabrinahicks.bsky.social is saying here: The very act of writing is a willingness to exam all the tender spots of being alive. It requires an amount of bravery, self-sacrifice, that is only admirable coming from, as Mary Oliver reminds us, “the soft animal of your body”.

The Auraist was kind enough to interview me about my debut collection, “Coyote Girl,” which they chose as Best Book of the Month. If you want to read about how much I hate AI or some of my stylistic choices, then read below! open.substack.com/pub/auraist/...

In an essay, poet John Haines, who went off grid to homestead in the Alaskan wilderness and wrote poems about it, inverted the phrase "sense of place" to "place of sense" for those places that flood the senses and live in us. Reading these gems, I am reminded of that and of my own place of sense.

Good news, I finally saw The Odyssey. Bad news, I forgot my ear plugs. I tried to remember after Dunkirk. Then again after Oppenheimer. So I’m 0-3. Please remind me for the next Christopher Nolan movie.

“As a child, I was terrified of the leftover balloons from the birthday parties. How gradually they sank to eye-level and bobbed mutely from room to room.” I love the striking images in this beautiful piece by @kathyfish.bsky.social!
