Buds, if I own your book and it's filthy, that's a compliment. Just means I read it on one sideline or another. Loved this book by @russellbrakefield.bsky.social that I finished between innings today.

My last book IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT AT THE PARK WEST has been named a Foreword INDIES finalist for poetry! These awards are judged by librarians and booksellers (my people!), so this feels pretty special. www.forewordreviews.com/awards/final...
Thanks to Aaron for being such a champion of other people's writing! And for some keen insights on the draft of this story.
I’m not at AWP this year, but my books are at the Wayne State Univ Press booth (#529) and at the @autofocusbooks.bsky.social booth (#640). 😎
