💌july '23, #1, hit snooze

Dear Reader, I hope this email finds you after 5 more minutes of sleep.

i have been more offline this month than i have been all YEAR and ouuuuuu it feels GOOD but kind of weird? i always look forward to writing newsletters, streaming, my weekly workshops, but i’ve had to take up more days nannying, and one thing leads to another — i couldn’t balance child care, which you need 8 hours of sleep for, and being online — now we’re in the middle of july and this is the first hello to you all month :0c

hitting snooze has felt pretty good :) i’m starting to reach debt equilibrium again, so hopefully less nannying shifts, more hanging out with you all! i have been writing quite a bit here and there, so i think i’m gonna send a separate newsletter out on wednesday that’s just poetry as well as an update on Patreon merch! 🥰

1️⃣ workshop news!

I took the first half of July off from workshops, but I’m excited to share TWO collaborative workshops with my poetry/editor besties, Asela Lee Kemper & Dina Klarisse!

K-Pop & Poetry with Asela Lee Kemper

eye am admittedly a newbie to k-pop and will probably remain a casual fan—this workshop will be super fun to k-pop stans and casuals alike! i’m excited to be bringing asela back for our second collab workshop together!

i don’t talk about it much, but my music taste is pretty diverse! i never cared much for k-pop until the stans sucked me in with videos of BLACKPINK under every big tweet 😅 i loooove an upbeat jam, so i’ve been made a fan of blackpink, red velvet, loona, and a few other girl groups! boy groups…bts and nct dream are okay, but remember that eye am sapphic before anything else 💅🏾 here is the sign-up if you’d like to join!

Faceless Daughters with Dina Klarisse

i’ve wanted to do an eldest daughter workshop since i started doing them, and i’m so excited to be bringing dina on for our first collab workshop together!

we are expanding upon/beyond the concept of the whole eldest daughter thing you’re always reading about—the title comes from a quote, but as someone who now identifies as nonbinary, this workshop is open to anyone & everyone interested in discussing familial relationships in general! sign up here.

2️⃣ celebrate disability pride month with our first ever open mic!

blossom & i are hosting poetry orchard’s first ever open mic this 29 July! we’re about to close the performer sign-up today as we’ve got a full roster, but please sign up to attend here!

3️⃣🤞🏾 likes charge reblogs cast that my internet stabilises 🤞🏾

I tried streaming last week, but my internet wasn’t stable enough to stay live orz

I’ll try again in August, hopefully we won’t have so many stormclouds swirling around causing my power to be knocked in & out—I’ll also start posting my VODs on YouTube from then on! I have all of my previous VODs saved from January 7, but I personally found them hard to follow because I didn’t have a chat overlay.

i’ll be back in you inbox soon, promise!
