My blog crush this week is someone I know in real life as well. We met our freshman year of high school, and he’s been a good friend ever since. When I moved back to Florida my sophomore year, he was always there for me (through the internet, at least), and we became close friends when I came back to Tennessee. Some people now call him JT, but I’ve always called him Tanner (his middle name) since that’s the name he introduced himself with.

Tanner writes some of the best poetry I’ve read. It’s deep and thought-provoking and, at times, funny. He started a blog a while ago with his poetry, but due to recent events in his life, he decided to start fresh at a new blog. He’s been through a lot in the past several years; I was going to tell you about some of it, but why not let him tell you? Give him some blog love, everyone. I’d really appreciate it.

Who is your blog crush this week?
