Excited to have this piece in the @womanmade.bsky.social member show! I have LOTS of small pieces looking for homes other than my closet, so if you're looking for art this holiday season, you can see some pieces at my website (in bio) & I have more as well!

Just sharing this again...good discussion, examples from prose and poetry, some play, and loads of generative prompts to choose from. Still lots of spaces, so I'd love to see some of you there!

I haven't written anything in weeks, but today I accomplished a draft. It's not working yet, but it features inside-out underwear, a limping coyote, and a car making noises, so I feel like it's following some of @toddedillard.bsky.social 's poem instructions...
