We’ve been far too quiet here and I can only apologise! HOWEVER I am currently tucking into @FawnPress’ new anthology, Elements: Natural & The Supernatural, this morning! So stay tuned for a full #review! 💚 #Poetry #PoetryCommunity #PoetryLovers

Zeus I didn't invite him here, I told him he has enough poems to be getting on with— that being the god of thunder, and law, just it should be enough to have your anger worshipped as sacred on the ground where it falls, rather than be told that you overreacted. #PoetryTwitter

For everyone who feels angry at the double-standards and unfairness crashing around this week.... Here's a #poem I angrily wrote when I was asked why Zeus didn't feature in my upcoming poetry pamphlet, I Chase Lightning. Poem text in alt text and in thread.

⚡️Cover Reveal⚡️ I Chase Lightning, out next month, is a poetic examination of the historic, folkloric, superstitious, and scientific explanations of lightning. I’m so excited & grateful these poems found a home with the lovely @BlackPearPress! #PoetryCommunity #CoverReveal

My #poetry pamphlet, I Chase Lightning, is out NEXT MONTH! It explores our relationship to the natural phenomena of lightning. Through history, folklore & science, humans have long tried to explain it— often wrongly! Cover reveal coming soon! #PoetryCommunity @BlackPearPress

Twitter, I need a favour. From the Body (@valleypress) is packed with powerful voices and narratives, and I'm honoured with what people have shared so far. However, there's a distinct lack of male and non-binary authors (which is saddening, while understandable, too). (cont.)

Happy publication day to @bethoblogs! I'm so excited for everyone to read 'Catching Sight,' which I had the pleasure of reviewing last month. If you want to read some beautifully stunning CNF then go and buy Beth's latest book!!🎉

It's publication day!!! Catching Sight is a sequence of creative nonfiction pieces that follow a visually impaired woman. It is my attempt to describe what I see and how much is educated guesswork. Available in ebook & audio for a pay-what-you-can fee! blanketsea.com/catching-sight…

We're just DAYS away from the publication of Catching Sight (@BlanketSea)! My micro-chapbook provides a first-person account of the internal thought processes involved in navigating a sighted world & contrasts this to a third-person, external summary, like audio description.
