I’m a regional poet, tho not even the best on my block ( see@Anne Fricke1) but aim to crack the recognition code for the next level if I knew what that meant. What was your break out journal? Asking as if I had friends...#poetrylovers #WritersCafe #amwriting #smallpress #journal

2nd local murder this week last night. This one a few blocks away. Police search planes overhead as we took our after dinner walk. Suspect at large.

Can I block 600 blue checks accounts in one day and still make it to work on time? Do gold checks count double? Where is @elliott_downing

As we are forced to live in your tweet capped world I think it only fair their be a way to turn off 'for you' as I don't want to waste views on tweets I didn't want to see anyway.

According to Facebook it’s my birthday be a great day to walk to your local bookstore and order one or more of my books, of course your favorite independent online distributer can get them for you too and don’t forget to tell @TheAlanGood you’ll buy a Malarkey title next go time!

Thai came in the mail today. Just in time for my birthday. I believe this completes my collection of the author’s works. Hopefully there won’t be anymore or I’ll have to jettison my thesarus to make room! @MalarkeyBooks @LeighChadwick5 #poetry #Bookboost #read

Came out of covid to find 3 poems accepted. One of them 30 years old! And I got laid off, just in time for my 72nd birthday. First time in over 50 years I’ve been unemployed. Must be time to finish my novel!

How many words constitute a novel and how many of them are ‘the’ & ‘and’ ? Asking as if I had no Google. #writerscommunity #novel #MondayMood #AskAMan #Siri

Go ahead and judge this book without seeing its cover or content. All publicity is good publicity! 4 stars!
It is factual that you don’t have to actually read SOPHOMORE SLUMP in order to review it on Goodreads

Saw this band in NYC. Early 70’s. Caught the Dewey Redman featured Quartet in Chicago same year as well as a few solo Jarrett concerts in between. I think I saw 12 Jarrett concerts all told. music.apple.com/us/album/lon…

(1,3) Thank you Boston @RedSox for all you did last night to honor survivors of gun violence. I was honored to have the chance to work with the Red Sox & my friends at @bradybuzz to plan yesterdays events. As some know, I was supposed to be there & throwing out the first pitch.
