Prototype and product from art time with mama.

The baby is fighting Robert Lowell again. Strife is internecine.

I want to be Dan when I grow up.

Them babies always wanna be the one on the guitar (sound on)

The Mystic Seaport Museum’s 40th annual Moby Dick Marathon starts at noon on Thursday, 31 July, on the last existing wooden whaling ship, the 1841 Charles W. Morgan. The reading ends around 1:30 pm the next day and there will be cake to celebrate Melville’s birthday!

I have one enormously long note on my phone where I jot down writing ideas and grocery lists, which leads to some pretty enjoyable moments of contrast.

I did not know Jane Greer except from afar, so I was surprised to read in her obituary that her return to writing poetry came on a trip to New Orleans. I’m thinking our @JDVjournal poetry reading in the fall will incorporate her work somehow.

Anybody know any fishing charter captains in South Louisiana who are also diehard Catholics? @KatiePMcGrady @ExiledTexan86 @KarenUllo

What if everyone--wonderful that it is so many!--who remembered @NorthDakotaJane here bought her in-print books from @lambingpress and read them? Or gave them as gifts? Bouquets of words, full of life, from Jane Greer to us...

It should be noted that in New Orleans we do not say “Coke” but “soft drink.”

I have been looking forward to reading everyone else's poetry for ages... Thank you so, so much!!

So honored by this bright and careful review of The Locust Years by one of my literary heroes, @SallyThomasNC . Thanks to @Fare_Fwd for publishing it. “One striking hallmark of Pastor’s body of work is that nobody else today seems to be asking his soul where its wisdom is…”

The unforgettable Jane Greer. “Motherhood on the One Quiet Night”— The grief: I cannot seem to move beyond it,

Thank you, New Verse Review and Steven Knepper for sharing my poem in this issue. I'm looking forward to reading through them all.

My poem, “When the Woman at Chase Bank Suspects I’m a Criminal” is in the summer issue of the @newversereview ! Extremely excited to be in this one with some very very good company. Thank you, @StevenEKnepper! newversereview.com/2-3-alexis-sea…
