Don't miss the JUNE bundle from our "Poetry Month All Year!" effort. Ten feisty books for $100--and free postage. All these manuscripts swept us off our feet during our reading period in the past few years. Fresh, fine, ferocious reading for your summer! ow.ly/tjDM50FhTwl

Our subs have been a little slow this reading period so we're offering a special 24 hour response for poetry this weekend at Anti-Heroin Chic. Visit our website for guidelines and a feel for what we're looking for. Retweets are very much appreciated!

I’ve always loved this passage from @alexanderchee on the way writers value time in the way others value material possessions. Thinking about this as I move into summer writing mode.
Love this sassy review of Joanna Fuhrman’s new book, *To A New Era* brooklynrail.org/2021/06/boo…
Working on the revision workshops for fall classes. Would love to hear your revision go-to’s, war stories, tactics, games, breakthroughs.

Do you miss this Cafe Muse reading by David Baker and Carl Phillips, old friends who will knock off your striped and proverbial socks? Listen deep and maybe shift your poetics to a new angle. Enjoy! ow.ly/xNag50EUiOY

I just read my poems along with a whole roster of beloved poets from Uruguay (and Argentina) that is still going on and just hearing the Spanish that is Spanish to me--made me cry. Me extraño Uruguay--

"These essays are rich, dense with information and images, and yet so clear-eyed in their focus and project. Like the hagstones...'they can help you see what is real.'"

Breonna Taylor was shot to death by police in her own home 5 months ago today. All of the officers have walked free. We must demand #JusticeForBreonnaTaylor. And we must keep fighting for the Justice in Policing Act to protect Black lives and end police brutality. #SayHerName
