Good morning #Bluesky! Today’s task is just to light a fire, have some tea, and work on my poetry collection. Wish me luck!

Very excited that this #book arrived. This will be the first book I’ve read about the CRAFT of #Poetry. What is your favorite about #Writing?

Good morning #bluesky. Got another lit mag rejection this morning (14/100) which had a novel line. Apparently they “couldn’t find a place for it” I know what they meant, but I like to imagine they had shelves just full to bursting and were trying to cram my poem in somewhere without success.
