Lynda Smith Hoggan’s Our Song: A Memoir of Love and Race is a profoundly moving memoir that helps us to see the difficulty of breaking through sexual and racial norms. @JohnBrantingham reviews. buff.ly/3XsY6si

Yours, Creature, the newest poetry collection by Jessica Cuello, is a work of exceptional sensitivity and thoughtfulness. @JohnBrantingham reviews. buff.ly/3LyOSJ0

Hey everyone, I am so thrilled to be leading this workshop. For national poetry month, we're going to write one poem a day for the entire month. We'll be revising in class, and I'll be giving prompts and directions! Here's the direct link: docs.google.com/.../1FAIpQLSfT…

@gooddirt I've been there hashtag Pillars of the Earth and when the . . . no spoilers.

@20minuteKnapp The only thing any of us know about Pete is how frustrating his sake is.

Passed in the hallway a sign leading to an open door where a celebration for "Pete" was happening. It took every fiber of my being not to just yell "HeyFuck you, Pete." I don't know Pete.

@lloydavidaquino @stephaniebarbeh Do you remember the bad poem reading that we did. Yours and John Buckley's nearly made me pee myself they were so good!

@stephaniebarbeh @JohnBrantingham I love writing bad poems! It used to be something I intentionally did just to have a little fun, so I wouldn’t get too self-serious about my “art.”

@WarShark4Eva Ah I hate that man, and it is always so hard to act in the moment!

I have an essay up at Coffee Times! medium.com/p/24d6610f7f5d

I just published The Geese Scream at Me to Look up from My Phone link.medium.com/vb4LYsNlhpb

@stephaniebarbeh All poems start off really bad. Yours always bounce toward good!

@ratpackslim @CulturalDaily7 @MoonTidePress It's a great book man that should be read and reread. It has been and will be by me!

Among other things, HEAD V HEART by @ratpackslim is a discussion of how popular culture can be magic, how it can help those who love it and take it seriously through life’s most difficult times. Review by @JohnBrantingham buff.ly/3LVQmKe
