It is with a great deal of humility and excitement that I can announce that Instagram has featured my ReadeLab Sonnet Project! Wow. As I have expressed previously on this site and elsewhere, I had began the ReadeLab Sonnet Project as a deeply personal, artistic endeavor where I could refine the process and art of writing creative sonnets, pertaining to topics that had emotional significance and resonance.
In terms of an audience on Instagram, I had a modest following of only about 100 folks prior to the feature. Admittedly, my updates were infrequent. And, at times, I felt that my ability to keep pace was falling by the wayside. However, Instagram was gracious enough to feature the account, and now I have been re-invigorated to ramp up the pace. Thank you so much, Instagram, for the swift kick to the ass!
I hope that, if you have occasion to read this blog, you will take a moment to look at the ReadeLab site on Instagram and check out my work there! I have provided a hyperlink to the project below. Thank you, and much love always!
I had the privilege of meeting up with Lauren Randolph (@laurenlemon), Michael Schulz (@berlinstagram), and Becki “the car hunter” (@checkibernoff) at the Venice Skate Park today.
Considering the fact that I grew up in Los Angeles, you’d think that I would have visited Venice Beach on more occasions. However, my trips there have been few and far between indeed, so it was nice to push myself to the West Side and meet up with these lovely Instagrammers. True to my overall experiences throughout this Instagram community, Lauren and Michael were wonderful and sweet individuals.
