Thrilled and so grateful to Christine Waloszczyk for taking time to chat with me about writing in a new interview out in @LunchTicket1’s latest issue!!! Get a peek into my lifeworld and neurodivergence in this latest conversation: lunchticket.org/giving-voice… I hope you enjoy!💛💛💛 – at Illinois, USA
There was a shooting near us in Highland Park, IL during a parade, a celebration, a coming together of communities. Innocent people are dead, dozens are injured, horror is manifest. My father’s reaction when I told him it was likely an AR-15? “Some people need them.” Fuck him. – at Illinois, USA
So happy I checked the mail today--I received my copy of Persuasions, the Jane Austen journal for the Jane Austen Society of North America! This is the first of three academic articles that I have forthcoming and it feels dope for another aspect of me to manifest on the page 😎
I have adored @TheRuptureMa ever since I began reading their issues when I started out in poetry. I never thought that I would see my words housed within their wonderful space, BUT my poem "Schizo as a Caveless Bear" is in the latest issue and I am so excited to share it!! 💛
Poetry from @7AlanNelson, @SaintJakeowitz, Joseph J. Capista, Will Simescu, Sasha West, and Sarah Carson

Waited to share this until I got back from my honeymoon (which was incredible!): on the trip, I found out that a schizophrenic poem of mine was accepted by The Rupture!!! I have long admired the work they put out and the wonderful writers I have encountered therein. I'm stoked!!!

While I was at CVS today, a woman began having a psychotic episode. Despite that she wasn’t causing harm, another customer demanded that she be kicked out. The manager responded, flatly, “We don’t discriminate against disability.” And that was that. Anti-ableism! In the wild!
I JUST HAD AN ACADEMIC ESSAY ACCEPTED BY A LIBRARY SCIENCE JOURNAL!! I will now have publications in every field I study in—holy shit!😎😎😎 – at Orlando, FL
Acceptance from Allium✅ Hired as a librarian already ✅Finals done ✅ Cuban cigars ✅ Graduating with third Master’s tomorrow ✅😎 – at Illinois, USA
Today, I received a wonderful piece of mail--my copy of @LaurelReview's latest issue where my poem "Animal Bones" appears. I am so grateful to @jjgallaher1 and co. for generously welcoming me into their wonderfully crafted space, placing me amidst so many incredible writers💛.

Instructions for Clinically Depressed Birthday Girls
Open your eyes.
Inhale the day.
Think: how today starts
to resemble tomorrow.
The next day. Now,
stop.
So excited to share new schiZo poetry with everyone! These are pieces that someone said didn't make sense/might not even be poetry. @NC_Quarterly proved that individual wrong and believed in me enough to publish my schizophrenic poetics. All my love to Colin and the team at NCQ💛

So, frens, @guesthouselit just needs 93 more follows to reach 3k before our 9th issue arrives next month. Can you spread the word about our little lit mag? 🌷
I have been in need of a service dog for quite some time so that I can go places with constant tactile and emotive psychiatric support, protection for/from paranoia, etc. I have been waiting and waiting and, finally, I found my little-big girl (she'll be HUGE, lol). Meet Molly❤️
