Happy Fourth Weekend, heat-based insomnia, and a few appearances by The Robot Scientist’s Daughter
Happy 4th of July Weekend, everyone! Stay safe! I know here in Seattle, it has been in the searing nineties and dry as a bone, so hopefully people leave the fireworks to the professionals and prevent unnecessary fires!
After a lack of sleep last night – heat-based insomnia, is that a thing? full moon fever? – I didn’t get to sleep til 7 AM, and I was woken up by my alarm at 8:05. Yay! Things have been a little stressful with family health stuff, the house selling/buying stress, and work, so it may have to do with that. I guess I am in need of a summer break!
In good news though, I came home yesterday to some mail appearances of The Robot Scientist’s Daughter – get your own Americana-history-themed robot poems here now! – one in the Pacific University Magazine, and the other in the form of an ad in Poets & Writers.
Here’s Pacific’s little write-up – thanks, Alma mater!
And here’s the Mayapple Press ad in this month’s Poets & Writers:
