Jackie Wang letters a letter about EVO REV

Jackie Wang is nothing short of impressive. Her essays are sophisticated and sharp. And now, she's started an epistolary review series, and she's chosen my humble EVOLUTIONARY REVOLUTION as the inaugural book! Check it out here at Bomblog.

frustration

After spending many ridiculous hours working on a grant application, it turns out the internal deadline may have passed without anyone in the department knowing. I can only hope this is a joke.

I'm reading articles and articles for class.

I'm reading books and books in an attempt to catch up.

I'm not reading enough.

I'm not reading enough fiction. I miss reading fiction.

I have a stack of review books on my shelf. They are exciting books. I wish I had the time to read them.

For many months now, I've abandoned this blog, using my "blog time" for HTML Giant, but I will start blogging here again now. Hello, Lily's Pad. I've missed you.

the book that launched a thousand... somethings...

Bloomsday

He took a reel of dental floss from with waistcoat pocket and, breaking off a piece, twanged it smartly between two and two of his resonant unwashed teeth.

Thank you, Mr Joyce.

Everyday Genius: Be the peeper you always wanted to be

This week, like right now, at Everyday Genius, Matt Bell will be writing, LIVE. He's got a paragraph now, by Tuesday, he'll have a story, hopefully. Tuesday night, Michael Kimball will guest edit/write. Wednesday from 1-2, I'll be joining in. Thursday, anyone can play, and Friday, Matt fixes it up all pretty. Brilliant!

Special offer

AWP-goers: If you stop by the Les Figues table & take YOUR picture with my new book & send it to me, I'll mail you something special off my bookshelf. It'll be something very special indeed. So do it! (Small print: Offer good for first five photographs.)

I'm reading in Buffalo tomorrow night. Come. Laugh. Whatever, you know?
