My laptop showing the Writing Barn event on screen. There are two stickers; one says “artist” and the other says, “Every now and then, scream at the top of your lungs. It helps.”
Sorry, I won’t be doing a haiku today…attending the Industry Engagement Event with @thewritingbarn.bsky.social instead.
(I promise I won’t be screaming at the top of my lungs despite what my sticker tells me to do)
