Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. One of my friends, who does not. Share my love of either Adele or this song, said that she could definitely see why it appeals to me. Am I really that predictable? To the first line of "All I Could Do Was Cry." The voices are eerily similar.and not just because they first two words are the same. Rather than with the fundamentalist crowd who tends to take it at face value. Whatever the reason, I just can't find Christians in and of...

Tucson, the Novel: Spending our Words
http://tucsonthenovel.blogspot.com/2011/10/spending-our-words.html
Tucson, the Novel. An experiment in literature and civil discourse. Tuesday, October 11, 2011. While I was in Leipzig this summer, fiction writer Erin Wilcox. Filled in as a guest reader for the project. Lately I’ve been out of town some more, doing readings and visiting classrooms, (come see me if you’re in Boston or Middlebury), and Erin’s kindly pinch-hitting again. So in honor of what will be her. Was I being typecast here? I thought, we have so few words and letters to spend. The traffic light blink...

Tucson, the Novel: It's a new day in Tucson, pardner

Tucson, the Novel. An experiment in literature and civil discourse. Wednesday, September 21, 2011. It's a new day in Tucson, pardner. Coinciding in the most fortuitous way with my announcement of Tucson, the Novel: Season Two, an aggrieved and fed up Tucson city council. Like: escorted out, by police officers. Which, y'know, from a First Amendment perspective rankles me pretty bad. But from the good-riddance-asshole perspective, I'm thrilled. KGUN 9 News did a good job summarizing the situation. Serializ...

Skip to main content. How could the light have been that different? Asks the narrator in Rachel Jamison Webster’s Widowed, comparing her memory of an incandescent moment with a camera’s cold rendering years later. In the face of the video, all hard lines and ordinary, she muses, this is the fear, isn’t it, that in our perceptions, in our feelings, we are really alone. How can we trust what we see? In both their withholdings and their revelations, these narrators wield power. Cold Flashes: Literary Snapsh...

Stoneboat: June 2014
http://stoneboatwi.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 4, 2014. Stoneboat Editors attempting to party. With Lisa as the exception, we here at Stoneboat. Are not extroverts. Our social skills are lacking, our willingness to go out in public is minimal, and our desire to meet new people is nearly nonexistent. Even talking on the phone gives us the willies. For Rob, Jim, and I, dancing the night away in front of strangers is about as appealing as water torture. So when Lisa first proposed the idea of Art Prom. Photo by Jodie Liedke. And the sile...

Stoneboat: September 2014
http://stoneboatwi.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 18, 2014. An Interview with Sandra Kleven. We asked our friend Sandra Kleven. To answer a few questions for us, covering her processes, beliefs, and experience as an artist. Sandra is a poet, writer, filmmaker, and editor of Cirque. A literary journal based in Alaska. Her answers, as expected, proved thought-provoking with just the right touch of that “quirky Sandy thing.” (Keep reading for more on that! I love the concept and hope it is true. Cleverness is one way to push the present...

Send in the Nouns. Unusual Sorrows, as Told by the Author. Posted by Richard Fenwick. Perhaps the truth depends on a walk around the lake. 8212; Wallace Stevens. What do I do? That’s not a metaphysical question, although I do require that debate from time to time. In this case, I’m wondering about the ongoing dilemma I’m having with regard to my next poetry collection, currently titled. Maybe the title is what makes the collection feel lopsided. I call it. In the summer of 2013. I like this poem, and...
