This was a sad shift, as we had folks signed up to stay for months in advance. Now that I\u2019m not spending my time hosting or interacting with my local community in person, I\u2019m engaging with my online community in a larger capacity. I miss sitting in front of my audience, writing for people after looking them in the eye, and I really miss browsing bookstores. I miss hugging my friends, having teatime and long conversations, and I miss going on tour. But I can\u2019t complain. Poetry has its place in the world now more than ever. I\u2019m here to translate the communal mood, to voice our collective pain, and find the beauty in all of it. My book will help others do this as well. And if there\u2019s one thing COVID has taught me, it\u2019s that we all need an outlet for our emotions, especially when we feel unseen and disconnected. Poetry is this outlet and we can still share it even if we can\u2019t be with one another in person.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What is something about you that doesn\u2019t make it into your author bio?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8417 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/resources2.soundstrue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Jacqueline_Suskin-Earth.jpg\" alt=\"earth\" width=\"709\" height=\"472\" srcset=\"https:\/\/resources2.soundstrue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Jacqueline_Suskin-Earth.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/resources2.soundstrue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Jacqueline_Suskin-Earth-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/resources2.soundstrue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Jacqueline_Suskin-Earth-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/resources2.soundstrue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Jacqueline_Suskin-Earth-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m an ecstatic earth worshiper.
