I have been a Traci Brimhall fan ever since ROOKERY upended my life. Having Traci’s generous words about BIANCA on the back of my book is an absolute pinch-me dream. Thank you @OurLadyOfNod!! https://t.co/88mEJdX4Iq

I am telling you every last poem in Vievee Francis’s THE SHARED WORLD is pure blue fire. “More hands than yours have closed / around my throat.” I am yelling after each poem. This might be my favorite book of the year. And 2023 is giving us some serious books. @northwesternup https://t.co/T7kVkq4fbQ

@jsparkblog @k_ivertown @moncholapoet @speakdeadly @patriphobe Highly recommend the newest one of these — Short Film Starring My Beloved’s Red Bronco by K. Iver — for you specifically bc of your work with grief & humanizing death / bringing hope into impossible places. I’ve been teaching from it quite a bit lately & I think you’ll love it.
