Idk but she hasn’t brought up the spoken word(s) again since like January I think when she said it was delayed. I hope chemtrails is actual music and I hope at least one spoken word is coming. I feel like if she’s been putting newer poetry to music with Jack from her second book that surely violet must be done since that was the first....?

This is what I’m hoping. But then I keep feeling sceptical because that’s a lot of projects for her in a short amount of time if they really do all get released. But then part of me feels like maybe she just has a huge surge of inspiration and a lot of time on her hands right now, so it does make sense. I’m just too afraid to be optimistic lol.

Haha I feel you. I think if she she does release a second book spoken word that it won’t come out until Like next summer after the book. But what do I know. I feel like I’m getting my hopes up too thinking there will be sooooo much new material and stuff but I’m also afraid to be optimistic lol. Hopefully it all works out.

This. And she would've told us by now that there's a different name for the spoken word albums than the book titles, which she's referred to already as their given titles.

A couple of us, on the other thread, think that maybe the audio book will contain the “best of” both written books. And maybe it will be out after COCC? Is she done with her second book? So many questions...

edit: wrong thread.

Does anyone have ideas on why the poetry books have been delayed?

The second book will be out in March.

As for Violet, it’s very hazy at the moment. Someone found an Amazon link that could mean that it’s coming in written form in November, by the same editor for the second book.

As for the audio book... your guess is as good as mine. It probably got reworked with Jack writing the music (in January, she did say it was sounding unpolished), and Interscope is probably on board as well. The latest poem she shared, Leather Patent, is from the second book. So it raises the question: will both books be audio? Or will the audio book be a « best of » of the best poems from both books?

the audiobook is only 30 minutes well we lost

It’s honestly not that bad for an audiobook. The poems she shared with us weren’t very long. I wasn’t expecting much more longer than that.
