I’m not on here that much, but anytime you want a poet to visit your classes, holler at me 💙 My second book Larks comes out from @OhioUnivPress in the spring, and my published work so far centers memoir and writing whiteness/difficult family narratives.
Grateful, as ever, for the art & the generosity of poets -- poets like @hmvanderhart zooming w my Ss @GreenhillSchool Thx, Han, for your poetry & for your care with my Ss, who loved what they've read from your collection What Pecan Light! 🤠🫶🏼 (PS Link in alt-text for image!)
