Apparently if you tell the truth about the Felon In Chief being a dishonest person, Meta will slap you on the wrist. Fuck censorship

I’m really leaning into my new angry protest era of poetry. #amwriting

Don’t Don’t tell me it doesn’t matter, This emotion I feel Don’t dismiss its legitimacy as you celebrate your triumph Remember the anger you felt Remember how it motivated you You were a sore loser once I recall Your violent actions and obscene language

Death of A Nation There is no future without education When knowledge is distorted and sabotaged We all lose. When the few can manipulate a majority We all lose. When hateful rhetoric can be explained away We all lose (1/2)

Today has been difficult. I really don’t know what else to say. But I know that I will be part of the resistance and use the written word to make my feelings known to all. #Resist #writingcommunity

Monday is MLK Day and a fairly significant college football game. That’s all the US has on the schedule #whatinauguration

How I feel after writing at the end of the day #amwriting

When writing poetry, do you necessarily aim for a collection of poems around one central theme or do you write each individual poem as it comes to you regardless of unity? #writingcommunity

Ok, now that we’ve had our snow for the season, spring can come

The poetry ideas are flying around my brain in a way the other story ideas never have. Maybe it’s because small bits are more manageable for my ADHD and therefore less stressful. I’m feeling very excited about this new direction, even if I’m not convinced I’m a good poet. I’ll get there. #amwriting

A lot of us are tired of hopping from one platform to another. Threads was a great place for a couple of weeks before the trolls arrived. I’ve loved the community I built there. But as with most things on the internet, it’s susceptible to human corruption. Meta has no intention of (1/2)

Social media relying on some of the worst offenders of facts to do the platform’s fact-checking would be funny if it weren’t so terrifying

My mom was born in Canada, and her mom was born in Denmark. It feels like Trump is picking on my family tree. He just needs to try to buy England, and that should cover it

I’m really getting the urge to write enough poetry to fill a book. #writingcommunity

I will be trying my hand at poetry this year with a twist. One word per day, resulting in a 365-word poem #poetry

One word at a time. One sentence at a time. That’s all I’m holding myself to do this year. Low pressure, attainable goals. I’m not building Rome, but the same concept can still have valuable results #writinggoals

Now that the chaos of the holiday is over, I can get back to writing tomorrow.

If you have a middle school reader in your life, particularly one who would enjoy a fast-paced, action-packed story that mixes the game with the challenges of life, my book would be an ideal gift. Available on Amazon.

Looking forward to getting some writing done over the next few days between family celebrations. I have some creative momentum I need to continue

I don’t know how many cups of coffee it’s going to take for me to feel alive today, but so far the answer is not one

Today’s creative process included developing an antagonist that I’m really looking forward to seeing come out more in the story #amwriting

Tonight my hands feel oddly the closest to normal as they ever have. Alas, it’s too late now to do any writing #disability

This is so true. Being disabled is like having an additional full-time job that affects not only your actual job but also how you spend your free time.
