This is Amelia. I’m seeking a caption. #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #newfoundlanddogs

I haven't written a blog in a few months. I haven't written much. The state of the world has me paralyzed. But...this morning, I posted some thoughts and I'd love to hear yours. rebeccaevanswriter.com/2023/12/12/wha… #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #struggling #lovewins

Penny. At eight weeks and last week. She loves "hiding" behind this plant in my bedroom, and I've pics measuring her and the plant on their growth charts. The day after the Solstice we enter more light. Penny is just one of my many lights. I hope you, too, have many lights.

Lisa Peterson! If you've not read her work, you've missed out. She is one of the careful, the conscience, the caring. And here, she paused her own creative endeavors, read my book, reviewed my book, You can read her review here: writingdisorder.com/lisa-c-peterso… I'm humbled.

Not sure how you're bringing in the New Year, but here, in the Evans' home, we take to cuddling--books, films, small creatures, large beasts, bad attitudes, and broken hearts. Image: Penny and her Hedgehog, circa 2024 #newfoundlanddog #NewBeginnings #newyear #poet #writerslife

Super thrilled to have another poetry book launching into the world in 2024 with the exceptional Moon Tide Press...and honestly, I couldn't be standing in better company. Look at the line-up for this year, including Kathryn DeLancellotti! #poet #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers

Just past the first week of the New Year and I rise to this...I'm calling it "Guardians of My Galaxy" because they're lined along the stairwell that enters the library and with the continuous banning of books, well, it seems my little collection warrants a few sentinels.

I'm lovin' the school advisory texts: Classes are in session today, Friday, January 12. Although our students tried the spoon-under-pillow and ice-down-the-toilet methods, a snow day is not in the cards. Stay safe on the roads. ...and I thought, They KNOW my sons. Stay safe.

Brevity! One of those lit journals that acts as both a resource and a source of inspiration. To have an essay up at Brevity, well, I'm still giddy. And thankful. Yes, I'm thankful that my essay has this incredible space to call HOME. brevity.wordpress.com

Flipping heart-shaped pancakes for my man-cubs and myself. This. Our little tradition since 2002. How do you flip for love? #happyvalentines2024 #lovewins #loveheals

The Price of Energy rebeccaevanswriter.com/2024/07/29/the… I haven't posted a blog on my website in a minute. Here's a new one. Would love your thoughts. #writinglife #writingcommunity #distraction #poetrycommunity #parenting #singleparenting

Thankful to have a new poem up at The Bangalore Review. This one is a Rondeau or, at least, my take on the form. It's entitled "Before the Last Sigh." bangalorereview.com/2024/08/before… The Bangalore Review Moon Tide Press
