Checking in... How is Mastodon coming along?
Been away since 2022 for an extra dry January (no alcohol, no social media), coming back to see what's going on.
Best wishes for 2023 to all people of good will! In 2022 I took steps on the path to prose, with three short stories in Dutch literary magazine Hollands Maandblad, a letter to minister Van der Wal, a story for Central Museum in Utrecht and an essay for De Poëziekrant about animals in Dutch poetry. Thanks to ILFU, Poëziecentrum Gent and Hollands Maandblad.!But I wasted a lot of time in 2022 too. That's why I will start 2023 with an Extra Dry January: no alcohol, no social media. CU in a month!

Merry Christmas and the like!
Adulthood is just constantly needing to empty the dishwasher so that you can fill the dishwasher.
Ik was van plan vanavond naar een geweldig programma in Perdu te gaan, met oa Alara Adilow, Maarten van der Graaff en Mustafa Stitou, maar ik kan toch niet. Heb twee kaartjes in de aanbieding, wie wil mag ze gratis hebben. Mail me op [email protected]. https://perdu.nl/nl/r/de-lezer-het-omgekeerde-dichtersinter-view/
Perdu

A poem in Dutch about the winter solstice. It's an old one, but every year around this time I look at it again and change it. It's quite possible that one of the previous versions was better. #poetry #poem #dutch
