Allison Field Bell

Website Update: BOTH of my chapbooks are now available to order! They even feature my photography as their covers 🖤 allisonfieldbell.com/books Thanks so much to @FLPress and @cutbankonline for believing in these projects!

In bed that night, I thought about the soft collision. The car and the snow. I thought about my mother's car. All that crushed metal. I thought about the new couches. They were large and pink and you could sink into them with your whole body. Congrats @AFB16 @EL_DIAGRAM

Please enjoy the opening 11 lines of Permission To Talk About Joy & Other Soft Things, the REMARKABLE new poem by @Garricologist that can be found on pages 45 through 47 inside Issue 19 of Stanchion. Please pre-order a copy today, from Stanchion or wherever you buy books online.

book baby !!!! @FLPress

Staff meeting today: We’re going to read for September’s issue for one more week(ish), then switch to October. So if you want in Claudine’s inaugural issue, now’s the time to submit! Microfic & CNF. Free subs. Paying market!

So happy to finally hold @AFB16’s amazing chapbook of poetry, WITHOUT WOMAN OR BODY 💙 stunning words dear friend!! @FLPress

My beloveds keep sending me pictures of my new chapbook out from @FLPress and it is the sweetest thing 💗

I'm mildly desperate for orders of Issue 19 of the magazine. I've lowered the price & made it available from wherever books are ordered to make it more accessible, but it's not working. @FBereaud curated a superb 5th anniversary issue. Please give it a try stanchionzine.com/product-page/s…

So grateful to Pam Houston and Simmons Buntin and everyone at @Terrainorg for publishing this flash💗

I'm floating after that. 90+ minutes of poems, stories, love, and more than a few tears (from me). I'm so happy to have found a community and to have made something that some people care about.

I’m reading at this @StanchionZine zoom event tonight! Join us!! stanchionzine.com/post/stanchion…
