Like so many of you, my friend @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social and I have been having a conversation about this country’s future.
Now we’re turning our dialogue into a book featuring poems and essays from Marlon James, Alexander Chee, Ashley C. Ford, Chase Strangio, Imani Perry and more!

Memoir isn’t just about telling a story—it’s about finding the right details, the moments that linger, the physical facts of a person or place.
That’s why I open my memoir workshop with poetry. Poems force us to slow down and notice. Here are some that I use—and why they matter for memoir. /1

Have some fun news hitting soon, which has me thinking of the ol’ “agents don’t work on poetry” statement I hear all the time.
Last week an agent pal gave me a collection she worked on. Another did a verse memoir. I’ve sold four verse novels and [find out tomorrow!].
Agents DO work on poetry.

Every book in every genre should feature scary giant sort of divine psychedelic-producing worms (that you can maybe ride but that also eat vehicles and factories and suchlike). Yes they have to be giant. No you don't get a pass for poetry or memoir or whatever.
I feel like we need some *innocuous* bookish drama to distract us from the other horrors.
Whaddya got?

Sensitive Poetry and Carbs: A Bluesky Memoir.
A small detail about my work: I’ve published two poetry collections and one memoir thus far. In all three books, the forest appears at some point. It’s a space of transformation. It’s a nod to the woods near the apartment complex I grew up in back in Lewisville, TX. Nature is a part of my nature.
