Some cool new lore just dropped on characters from the brilliant pen of @jeremyhammett.bsky.social #writersky #booksky #writers #military #army #writers #books #southernwriter
In Schofield Barracks day to day business in garrison is conducted on the open air lanais. The lanais are ruled by the junior sergeant and senior E4 fire team leaders.

In SSG Pierce’s first squad that means Sgt Steven Anderson of Pennsylvania.

My first MFA term is officially under my belt! 🎉📚

I started the program wondering whether I was good enough and whether I belonged here.

Now, I know I do.

🌌 Another year under the same universe. 🌌

Years ago I climbed Arthur’s Seat above Edinburgh. From that summit, the world felt ancient and immense. That moment became my poem “Universe.”

Years ago, I stood on Arthur’s Seat—the ancient volcanic summit overlooking Edinburgh—with the wind rushing past and the entire city spread below me.

From that height, the world just felt immeasurable.

I didn’t yet know about the house fire—the rewriting. The weight life would carry.

But I was small inside something vast—and I was still here.

This month, I share Spoonful of Gravity.

I remember times of sitting on my grandmother's screened in porch, listening to the rustle of leaves in the oak tree nearby. It's branches provided a cool spot to rest during the heat of the day.

📝 New poem just dropped: Live, Laugh, Love, Literally

I didn’t dance. I watched from the edge.
I left. I came back.
I wrote this instead.

And yeah—
I chose the May Flowers.

Blood landed on my lips the first night. The Tough Man Contests had come to Charleston, and these were only the preliminaries. My latest substack post.
