I loved reading this. Women have to think about everything, everyday, all the time. It’s exhausting. Maybe it’s also what makes us different? I don’t know but I’m excited for you to tie your knot and to read this collection. ❤️

Oh, Maria, this is lovely and perhaps because of where the world is today I am grateful for the forthright way you write about some hard things. I read on hungrily and you fed me this morning. Thank you. I am looking forward to your poetry.
