I'm back...

Been super-crazy-busy. Posts are likely to be briefer, more writing-related, less frequent in the immediate future. I love the blogosphere, but sometimes a girl's got to clean her house. You know?


I think that my pregnancy is really pushing me to write, work, publish. There's a fear in me, a little demon fear, that I won't get anything done for the next few years, so I want to set goals for myself, raise the bar now...


And in Laurel lit-news...


Exciting interviews afoot at Nextbook.


Up this week: Shalom Auslander on porn shops and Leonard Michaels.


Coming next week: Jonathan Rosen on incest and Henry Roth.


Who knew Judaism was so dirty?


In other news, I've got a new bit up at Killing the Buddha, a rant about eloping to Vegas, and why I thought YOUR wedding was ridiculous!


And in poetry news, I just found out that Drunken Boat published some of my poems in February! Did you know? I didn't know, but it's a good issue. Check it out!


Trips planned to both Iowa City and NYC in coming weeks, before my doctors begin enforcing the "no travel" laws. If you're in one of those palces, back-channel me... I'd love to consume something with you, something non-caffeinated, non-alcoholic, non-smoking, well-done.


Anyone seen "Hustle and Flow?"
