This week let’s write a Twitter Bio. I didn’t know about Twitter Bios until our very own JeanMarie Olivieri mentioned it in her recent post. The idea is to write a poetry biography like you’d use when submitting, so it’s less than 240 characters, meaning it’ll fit in a standard tweet.
Post your very brief bio in the comments below. If you add your Twitter handle, I’ll follow you and don’t forget to use the #twitterbio hashtag.
About Bartholomew Barker

His first poetry collection, Wednesday Night Regular, written in and about strip clubs, was published in 2013. His second, Milkshakes and Chilidogs, a chapbook of food inspired poetry was served in 2017. He was nominated for a Pushcart Prize in 2021. Born and raised in Ohio, studied in Chicago, he worked in Connecticut for nearly twenty years before moving to Hillsborough where he makes money as a computer programmer to fund his poetry habit.
