Poems in Drunk in a Midnight Choir & AfterEllen’s list!

Posted on by Joanna Hoffman

Hi friends,

You know how you can go a long time without hearing from a friend, but when you do reconnect, it’s like no time has passed at all? Those kind of friendships are awesome. Hi! I’ve missed you!

Some updates from me:

If you read my book Running for Trap Doors and liked it, I would really appreciate an Amazon review! Or, if you’d like to buy a signed copy, you can do so here.

How’s your 2014 been? Want me to come read poems or teach a workshop at your school/organization/venue? Hit me up!
