Okay, so lots of stuff but first and foremost I am SO EXCITED (and so delayed in saying so) that Bloof will be publishing my chapbook Sympathetic Nervous System in 2014! Check out the full announcement here. I am so happy to be in such good company! Here is the full list of chapbooks that were chosen from their open reading period:
Bedtime Stories for the End of the World! by Daniel Borzutzky
Sympathetic Nervous System by Jackie Clark
Conversation with the Stone Wife by Natalie Eilbert
Odalisque by Ben Fama
The Failure Age by Amanda Montei
Little Uglies by Dawn Sueoka
Some poems from Sympathetic Nervous System recently appeared in interrupture. You can read them here.
What else?
A new Poets off Poetry went up last week by Scott Pinkmountain. I think it is a hoot! Read it here.
As always, more Songs of the Week, featuring Black Ocean authors Joshua Harmon, , Zach Savich, and Joe Hall, with a lot more to come.
Lastly, my bf and his band The Gold Magnolias are headed out on their annual fall tour. While it’s sad that he will be away for a while I am getting to go hang out with him and the band in New Orleans this year and am really looking forward to that. I’ve never been. The big thing though is that they just launched a Kickstarter campaign to help fund their second album. Give a few bucks if you can. Check out their tour dates too. Are you in any of these cities? If so, go see them. I promise it will be a fun time.
