I worked on my first chapbook for over a year, spent all of 2025 shopping it around/submitting to contests- all declined. At the start of 2026 I made the goal of having my first book published & on the 5th of January I received this acceptance from Kelsay Publishing. I'm so thrilled to share it!

Picture description: grey table with a green spiral notebook, on top is a smaller book with yellow background and picture of a brown-skin child touching foreheads with a dark blue dog, black grease flying in the background. Book title is The Crown Ain't Worth Much. Dark green cup with white top.
I've got an hour and 20 minutes before I get to teach gentle yoga. In these few moments I'll stay dedicated to my writing practice.
This book of poetry by Hanif Abdurraqib is great inspo.
What's inspiring you these days? Nothing is too small.
It is a very inspiring book.
