Chet'la Sebree

So it’s my birthday AND the finished copies of FIELD STUDY (@FSGOriginals) arrived with that little circle that says James Laughlin Award winner (@POETSorg) 😭🎉. If you need me, I’ll be outside in the sun, drinking wine, and crying. HBD to me 🥳.

Day 27 of the #sealeychallenge is FIELD STUDY by @Nahtil! I've loved this author and this book for years, and I'm grateful for what this text does in terms of form and revelation. More discussion of what interracial relationships can do to Black women.

@brittanyroger_ @MoonsAtDusk I love the way y’all love each other. Brings me so much joy 🥲💕

1. I love @MoonsAtDusk like nobody’s business. 2. She is out of control lol
