NOT TODAY, SATAN (MAYBE TOMORROW)
8th Circle Press (2023)
A new collection of laugh-out-loud poems from the international bestselling author of Look Mom I’m a Poet (and So is My Cat)
Tired of Instagram poems about whiskey and self-love? Not Today, Satan (Maybe Tomorrow) is the hilarious antidote you didn’t know you needed, complete with crap drawings that make Rupi Kaur’s look like they belong in the Louvre.
From poignant odes to snack cakes (“The Last Temptation of Little Debbie”) to tough love for friends (“You are Not a Mermaid”), Shaffer’s biting satire will have you questioning why you ever wasted time reading lesser verse jockeys.

What reviewers, booksellers, and librarians are saying on NetGalley:
“It’s been a while since a book has made me laugh out-loud but Shaffer’s poems certainly did.”
“This is definitely a book I have to have a physical copy of on my shelf to share with friends!”
“Funny short poems that remind me of Jack Handey’s Deep Thoughts.”
“The poems are hilarious and so relatable and true. My patrons will love this!”
“A legally binding document that could be used as evidence to commit the poet to a psych ward for a 72 hour hold.”
