I know it's not the end of the year yet but I don't care. Sometimes things just happen at the time they need to happen and there is nothing that can be done about it. Or maybe it's just because I'm impatient. Who the fuck knows?! Anyway, for anyone interested, I have released a selection of the poems I wrote this year both as an ebook and a paperback, available on all amazon home sites .com .co.uk etc and also available to read for free for kindle unlimited subscribers. This is a much better way to digest and enjoy (if that's the correct word) these poems than their current form, although they are all still available to read (and trade) on Zora if that's your thing. I haven't included, as promised, any of the ones I sold as casts. Those ones are true 1/1 pieces and will never be published anywhere else. There are also some notable exceptions that didn't really fit into the overall theme of the collection, which is basically "what it feels to like trying to be a responsible adult when the whole world is falling apart around you." Hard is the one word answer to that question. Fucking hard is the two worder. The collection of fifty poems are all ripped unceremoniously from real life situations, albeit peppered with my own absurdist perspective (defense mechanism anyone?) and are incredibly personal. I've put my heart and soul and blood and sweat and literal tears into these pieces, and I hope it shows. The cover was done by Grok's minions so if you think it's shit, you can blame him/her/they/it. All of the poems in this collection were initially published here on Farcaster, an experiment that began way before casts could be published, before finding a home on Zora, not forgetting a whirlwind summer affair with Paragraph. I will always love your format P, but not your UX. Alas. Without the community here on Farcaster, and the endless support of many of my followers who are too many to name but will know exactly who they are, it's likely they wouldn't exist. Thank you. So here it is, in a much easier format to read, in a return to web 2 and traditional payment rails, Normal Again: A Collection Of Poems From 2025 (even though it hasn't finished yet. But we all know December doesn't count anyway really, though, right?!) Enjoy! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F5N9V6LX
