On The Words I Write | 3.29.21
The response to my little signal fire yesterday was overwhelming and beautiful, so many kind words from so many corners of the planet about the enduring hustle of being an artist in today’s world. Thank you. A billion times over. Tomorrow, less than 24 hours from now, another book of my poetry will be out in the world, a fact that just astounds me. My 6th book, and it’s because of all of you. You following these words has given me a life I could have never dreamed of, and while the hustle is indeed exhausting, YOU make it worth it.
To make a living, to support a family, on the words I am writing is something I could never have honestly imagined happening. I ain’t rich, and I never will be, poetry just doesn’t pay enough, but I’m a billionaire when it comes to the community that’s been created.
My humble advice: Chase down your dreams, no matter how outlandish they may seem. If your heart calls you, answer.
To make a living
to support a family
on the words I write.
