SKULL thepoetrybox.com/bookstore/skull via @saveningo I got my bell rung pretty badly in 2017, shortly after an election that left me shaky to begin with. I wrote about it in SKULL, my latest chapbook, will be out 12/15 and is now available to pre-order Take a look-see! #poetry

'Stolen: Surviving St. Michael’s' is an arresting blend of family history and investigative journalism. For its tenacious reporting & continued commitment to recognizing the full history of the Indigenous community, 'Stolen: Surviving St. Michael’s' is a #PeabodyWinner. 🏆

A Pulitzer & a Peabody!! What an unbelievable 2 days! This feels like undeniable proof that Indigenous stories matter & that we should support Indigenous people to tell them. We are so grateful to survivors who shared with us & hope this means more people will hear their voices.

@drewportnoy I swore to myself this was you in disguise. We actually have glasses, wigs, and a mustache like this in our basement/your guest room.

@drewportnoy Vote for my ovaries, please. They’re younger.

@drewportnoy Congratulations to you both on your pragmatism!

@MKDorDiggsy Absolutely.

NIGHT HAG (Unsolicited Press, 2023) is out now!

NIGHT HAG speaks of femininity through the eternal voice of Lilith, the first woman. NIGHT HAG is an exploration of yin strength and autonomy of body, heart, and mind. NIGHT HAG invites readers to consider distinctions between selfishness and self-care. #nationalpoetrymonth

Happy Easter! My Christianity is mainly about ensuring school shootings remain easy & convenient to do, making women’s tricky healthcare decisions for them, and putting up obstacle courses in front of voting locations in Black neighborhoods. But also, Cadbury eggs! 🇺🇸

.@RonSexsmith Hey Ron! I forgot to thank you last night for recommending Martin Chuzzlewit. Chose it for my Dickens book club and finished it a few months back. Now it’s one of my faves.

@teachergorman @KateRistau @ArminTolentino Gah! I just saw this now, Ben—thank you!

@KateRistau @AmyBaskin @ArminTolentino Two of my favorite poets in the whole world!

@RonSexsmith Thanks for the beautiful evening, Ron! It was our pleasure meeting you and Colleen and we hope you enjoy a lovely meal in Portland tomorrow on us.

.@RonSexsmith , what a joy to hear you tonight!

@RonSexsmith We’re excited.

Reading and rereading this spring break weekend, and in heaven.

People aren’t geniuses. People can channel genius.
