INSPIRATION

I am gradually leaving social media.

Poetry with María Fernanda (not a substack) will be an independent newsletter arriving to your email inbox. It will go in depth on

• my travels as a full time artist

• share upcoming literary events by Poetry with María Fernanda

• links to writing opportunities from across the U.S. and internationally.

Why a newsletter?

First, I am immensely grateful to write this: I have started receiving requests—very kind requests! thank you!—to begin direct messaging people on Instagram ahead of my performances. They share our similar frustrations with the Instagram algorithm. Since I support myself entirely with poetry, adding to my to-do list can feel like an overwhelming thought. Still, I am hoping this is a useful solution.
