@oldbuffalo i've been getting kind of into Christ (the guy) actually

@egabbert how's your Lenten journey going?

@leepattersons @thebluepitcher @ksilem Wow ---- thank you so much for this, I needed this today <3

In the midst of all this worldwide chaos, I'm trying Substack. Here's my first article- hope you'll enjoy and subscribe! @leepatrickpatterson" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@leepatrickpat… mentioning @thebluepitcher @egabbert @ksilem et al.

@oldbuffalo 3 feet of snow and no heat but getting by!!!

@egabbert I can't get back to sleep, but that's my problem...how are you?

@BrigitteKratz They are such wonderful, devoted readers!

@egabbert Thank you Elisa! It was also fun to discover a new podcast based on your recommendation (The Mookse and the Gripes…I had not heard of it before). I checked it out yesterday and the first episode I started listening to included your appearance, quite serendipitously.

My books to read just grew further into the stratosphere—thanks to @egabbert’s phenomenal reading list, always a highlight for me at the end of the year!

@Alrightfruits Did you remember this is my last, saved Sebald?? I hope to read it soon!

@egabbert Please read Austerlitz in 2026. I would love to hear your thoughts.

I'm about to break my posting fast with a very important announcement.

@aliner Happy new year Alina!!!

We love to see it ❤️

@oldbuffalo to you as well!!

@egabbert I ordered two books of poetry off your list... I'll order a third, when I get hungry for your blurb. Happy New Year Elisa!

@splitlipthemag @fsgbooks Thank you! 🩷

We got book news on ACCOMPLISHMENT SUNDAY 🙌 Contributor @egabbert has a new book titled MY VOID forthcoming from @fsgbooks in 2028 🎉 We're looking forward to the read!

@oldbuffalo what was the other question?

@egabbert I'm reading the introduction to an anthology of the best American poetry of 2025 and lo and behold, there's Gabbert's name...I wonder how she's doing...do you have a favorite poem ... I like the Kunkel one

@max_fire02 I laughed out loud. the one about nuclear bombs & radiation

@egabbert I should stop associating you with melting eyes, I think it's because of one of your essays.

Look how much like Kafka Kafka looked as a child

@oldbuffalo how are you?

@egabbert all things are a lot to consider...but I'm glad

@egabbert checking in...how are you?

A poet was talking about a friend who wrote book after book after book and I said, I admire that so much. Then she told me about another friend who barely writes at all and I said, I admire that too.
