#SummerCardSwap 2025
@dabbe I noticed all the effort you put into the swap, from the return label, created a card, and the fun activity sheet! The stickers are super cool 😎
so-soHmm, I didn't remember many of these, mostly just “Warming Her Pearls“ -- which was still good, but maybe the only one I really *liked*. Probably I should spend some more time over them; I best like the poems I've studied, when it comes to Duffy.
Mind you, I hadn't studied most of the Rapture collection, so maybe I just prefer her later work.
Portlands first annual Queers and Quills.
Super excited to be behind the scenes and helping out!
Super proud of our organizers especially after the disaster we saw with the Million Lives event 😂.
We are sold out booked and busy with over 100 queer authors

pickA beautiful novel in verse that explores themes of identity, self, loss of self, and family. #poetrymatters #novelinverse #nationalpoetrymonth
pick⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Written in prose, home is not a country is a poignant & moving book about finding yourself & loving yourself. It's about making your life, despite the imperfections, 100% your own. And therein living it without dismay over what could have been & instead simply being proud of who you are & grateful for what is.
Can NOT recommend this book highly enough! (Even the acknowledgement section at the end made me cry. This book was just THAT good.)
