Several Small Animals have arrived!!! I truly could not be more excited to see my first book in print; I am so very thankful to @razovsky.bsky.social for all his work in editing Several Small Animals, and to Brian Kaufman and Anvil Press for all that they have done for this book.

Excited for the stunning fall 2025 entry in my Feed Dog Book imprint from Anvil Press! Vera Hadzic's full-length poetry debut, Several Small Animals Enclosed in a Benedictine Monastery, is compelling, visceral, often dark, and always magical! @anvilpress.bsky.social @hadzicvera.bsky.social

This is so kind of you!!! That poem is going to be included in the book too--thanks so much for being the first to publish it ☺️☺️

Thank you so much, Jeff!!!

Ooh thank you! I love this, I hadn't thought about it that way; both human and shark ghosts, maybe! And thanks for reading and sharing!! 😊

Very happy to have had these two poems posted here last month; thanks again @robmclennan.bsky.social!!

I'm still super happy to have two stories in here published a while back in November! Thanks again @amandaearl.bsky.social!!

Thanks for sharing!!

This is from my poem "Sky Pillars", from back in October! It still feels great to have this poem out in the world through @thesedayszine.bsky.social ☺️☺️

I only just saw these posts and wanted to say how much I really appreciate hearing this--thank you, Jeff!!

Thank you so much!!

Oh yes, I've definitely experienced that too at times! And sometimes, my classes inspire me to write, but then I can't find the time!

That's understandable, you must be so busy with a 10-month old!! I'm sure it's a lot of fun though. Writing is a bit slow on my end too because of school right now, but I find time here and there! I'm glad to hear things are great with you overall :)

Hi Derek! Thank you!! I hope everything is going well on your end too, writing-wise and in general; I'm glad to have found you on here! ☺️
