How has your writing style and/or perspective on writing changed since the publication of I Live in a Hut? Oh, gosh. Lots of life things have happened, and the short answer is not sure/something is still cooking. I quit drinking, and my relationship to writing is still shifting to accommodate that huge and necessary change.

I felt like such a shithead most of the time that I could only redeem myself by writing something good, so I tried really hard to do that. It was the way I earned the right to walk on the earth, or so it seemed to me.

So, getting well, I find, dissolves that immense pressure, but also makes it confusing to approach the page. I think this is good, but tremendously frustrating. I had never realized before that this was my standard mode of thought in a poem. Years and years ago, I wrote a sad little poem about the terrible weight of being responsible for everything that happened in the world, sweeping the winds and grasses around all the lovers, making the streetlights come on at the right time. Sometimes I think alcoholics and addicts are basically failed, pissed- off wizards. Like, goddamn I couldn.
Pass me that Old Crow so I can listen to my one Neil Young song on repeat. Part of me is afraid. Which is silly, because I think the bewilderment and humor of failing to control anything in the world is absolutely a human situation and not one that belongs only to alcoholics.
Nobody is at perfect peace. And I'm in no danger of becoming too good, too serene. Not anytime soon! So: It. Sometimes I stumble into the right slant of thought and remember, . What are you working on right now? I. The first draft was such garbaggio, but there were 5. I liked, so I started over with those.
I write a poem every 1. When I put the novel aside for the few months, I also write and revise stories. Most of the poems I wrote during my really bad drinking times, so they. I love this book so much, but it.

Not the standard polite three- writers- and- a- cheese- plate kind of thing, but more a guerrilla affair. A few summers ago, I got to go on tour with my best friends as Line Assembly. Anne Marie read a poem to the purses in the window at the Prada store. I read a poem of mine in the produce section of a grocery. It was kind of amazing. But it seemed to make the readings more intimate.

What poet (contemporary or of the past) should we all be reading? Jennifer Tamayo. Lillian- Yvonne Bertram. Terrance Hayes, always & forever.
Ottessa Moshfegh and Sarah Gerard and Kiese Laymon and Joy Williams! Jessica Rae Bergamino. Whoever makes up the hand- written signs in the gas station that tell you the slushie machine is broken. What is your advice for young writers?
Be nice, but have your own back & support others. A community of writers isn. You must go to readings. You should read your friend. One of the best ways to secure a community is to help that community, in some way, to exist.
Comparison can be deadly to this engagement. Don. This is stuff I find challenging & still am working on. This is my advice to myself as much as anything. Find a way to keep writing in the middle of your life without creating conditions around it that make you self- destructive. Oh, I know it sounds so yoga- mom to say it, but you have to take care of yourself. Take care of yourself so you can write things that scare the shit out of people.

I have come to dislike the idea that there. I mean, the doorway is magic. But the magic (I hope) is that it can appear anywhere. Not to dismiss the power of pleasant physical objects, of course. I like my coffee and million cups of tea and cigarettes and oranges. I like to stare at this parsley plant my mother gave me to give to my ex- boyfriend, which he decided he didn. I feel so much for it, and feel embarrassed by my feeling.
I have a poem where I berate it for doing such a terrible job of being a woman, because it seems just as ridiculous as the amount of shit I get/give myself every day for not woman- ing adequately. If it seems absurd to tell my parsley plant it has a fat chin & a smelly pussy, I should probably lighten up on myself! The things around me always end up in poems.
