2022 Publication Round-up: 🧵 Considering this was my first year submitting my writing for publication, I'm proud of my accomplishments. I submitted 9 times, to 7 mags, with 7 distinct poems. 6 were accepted + published. I had two nominations, one for Pushcart and one for BotN.

And finally, last but not least, @tattiezine gave my hometown poem "Breakup Letter for Boise, Upon Leaving for Somewhere Else" a home of its own in their fourth and final issue. I don't think it's available online anymore, so I'll include the poem here (with alt text, of course).
The poem "Breakup Letter for Boise, Upon Leaving for Somewhere Else" is presented on a plain white background: "I love you in the way only an ex-lover could. I have felt your flaws and seen your most beautiful sights. I correct my out-of-town friends when they pronounce your name with a Z, but I let the potato thing slide. My family still loves you and wishes I hadn’t left you. I still love you, but without you I am the happiest I have ever been. I will miss you. You’ll forever be my first love—you, the one I’ll always see in too-small downtowns, in mountain lakes and rivers, in snow on roads that stay untreated because you insist the salt rusts cars. You taught me how to love. You taught me when to leave. I hope you are not angry. I hope you understand."

had to come up with a quote of the day for tomorrow and was thinking of @ericawrites_’s poem in issue 3 of @celestitepoetry, so here we are ☺️💕
A whiteboard that says “Welcome to Ruth A. Haas Library, Quote of the Day” in blue and orange marker. The poet’s Twitter handle and an MLA citation for the poem are on the side and bottom of the board respectively. The poem excerpt reads as follows: It is 8:10 here and I miss them. our beautiful togetherness, the way the dog always stood with her front legs up on my chair. Is she standing like that now? My sunset was two hours ago and life carries on, with me further away than I've ever been from my people or maybe the other way around.
