This makes me happy.
Butter.
Staying off most social media so I can preserve my last shred of sanity, but sending love your way.
The only thing good about this political shit show is that it's making me write with fierce fury on my book.
Writing nonfiction (and it's going to be an amazing book!) but I love poetry and art beyond all things. Where are all the poets, poetry lovers, art makers, and art lovers? I want to follow you!
