#writerscoffeeclub Name a poem (or poet!) which has influenced you.
There's too many to list. There's the usual suspects like Khalil Ghibran and May Ziyade who influenced my 19th century Egypt pieces. Lately I've been drawn to the narratives of women and supporting women's wrongs so Abbasid era female poets like Inan, Arib and Faridah are big inspos. He's a man, but also Bai Juyi's Song of Everlasting sorrow which gives a sympathetic look of Yang Guifei.

#WritersCoffeeClub 6 May: What does your usual workspace look like? Share a picture.
Prepare to be horrified!
Nobody has ever accused me of being a neat freak. (And yes, the shiny things in the top right of the pic are Hugo awards.)
It’s been a long long while since I’ve focused on my writing so I signed up at
writingmonth.org. My goal is simple - commit to writing at least 500 words/day and see where it leads me ✍️

OMG, okay, so COVERS. I'm so excited about covers. First, I make many of my own (and make some for sale). But.
BUT.
I'm starting the Actual Writing part of my next series and I collected the ten covers (made by and then made into a cohesive set by a different designer) for the series and... I'm so fucking excited about these.
Queer romance in a modern-with-magic universe, based in an AU version of San Francisco.
SO EXCITED.
