Michelle DiSarno @michelledisarno.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Happy #Stunday! #Alaska #WendellBerry: “We walked always in beauty, it seemed to me. We walked and looked about, or stood and looked. Sometimes, less often, we would sit down. We did not often speak. The place spoke for us and was a kind of speech. We spoke to each other in the things we saw.” 0143

Michelle DiSarno @michelledisarno.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Thoughts on making your poetry book available as an ebook? I do think it makes your work more accessible. My hangup: I’m paying for rights for a quote for my epigraph and the price goes way up for ebooks. #author #poet #poetry #amwriting #writingcommunity #poetsofbluesky #blueskypoets #authorsky 020
