Instagrammers-in-Residence: Sommer Browning

Instagrammers-in-Residence: Sommer Browning

We’ve had an illustrator and a library take over our Instagram (@actualpants) before, and loved every second of it. This past week, though, was the first time we had an author participate. We managed to get Sommer Browning to lend us some of her time and she showed us everything from tamales to dirty mouses, from green (gold and white!) juices to her new book, The Circle Book. Take a look!

Sommer Browning writes poems, draws comics and tells jokes. She is the author of Backup Singers and Either Way I’m Celebrating, two poetry collections from Birds, LLC. Her poems and drawings have appeared in The New York Quarterly, Typo, Octopus, past simple, Free Verse, The Stranger and other places. She’s a member of the poets’ theater GASP and with Elisa Gabbert & derrick mund she curates The Leon Affair, a reading series in Denver where she works as a librarian.
