Weekend Announcements

Greetings Fellow Booklovers and Blogospherians!

A lot has been going on in the past few weeks and I've decided to share some scraps. Scrap by scrap. I'm still finishing up my piece for Writer's Digest about How to Get a Story Collection Published. I was also recently told I would be a guest editor at a new lit journal. I'm also going to be reading tomorrow night at KGB Bar's Red Room. The F-Bomb Reading Series is doing an evening of Flash Fiction. We're lucky to have Paul Beckman host the night. Some very talented readers on the card, including Gessy Alvarez the editor-and-chief of Digging Through the Fat Ripping Out the Heart. I'm down to 2 short pieces, but I haven't decided which one I'm going with just yet. I might need to flip a coin, and perhaps a special coin at that. A Mercury head piece might not cut the mustard. I'm thinking of going with something a bit more obscure like an 1857 Flying Eagle. I'm nuts about James B. Longacre's designs, but I also don't want to have to shell out for something like that just to land a lucky Flying Eagle Head.

Mainly, I wanted to let you know that I'm not resting on my laurels, and I will happy to keep you posted about readings, events, author interviews and such.

By the way, I am also looking to conduct more blog and author interviews for myself. So if you know any authors interested in having an interview, pass this hyperlink along.

Be well Be Warm!
