yo. rumble is publishing a flash fiction piece about these kids living in tiny cabins up in Colorado who make a goldfish pond and then let it freeze.

Seattle / Portland readings: will be reading to a mostly Heeb (read: Jewish) crowd. probably will read a couple of my poems about israel / and growing up as a Jew in the south (one of which will be published in this upcoming magazine, Drash)

might also remix some Saul Bellow lines into poetic form. . .haven't decided yet.

merci pour la check-in -- and the new twitter novel section at http://buboneka.blogspot.com/ looks great man.

we'll see about new forms. there's definitely a quiet evolution going on.

the other day i found / participated for a few minutes in what seems like 'literature in real time' it was at the website HTMLGIANT.

people started leaving comments on a post (Zachary German's bookshelf) and it just kind of erupted into people leaving scraps of poems / novels and just little thoughts and reports of feelings.

each time you refreshed the comments it was like there were new 'characters'.

it seemed exciting for a few minutes.

twitter could be an ideal place for this kind of ongoing flow of characters / thoughts / expression.

re: pulp. i don't know. never really read any 'pulp' except bukowski's pulp. funny too, that was the only book of his i never really 'devoured.'

thanks for turning me on to Another Sky. Looks like a really interesting publishing house from what I've read so far.

funny how weird and bizarro fiction doesn't sounds less and less weird and bizarro.

travel writing: trying to do my part to make it more literary. remixing with flash fiction, only true events.

everything optimized for generations to come that won't have attention span longer than 30 secs.

tried to read cosmoplis while living in buenos aires. it was translated into spanish and i only made it about halfway through.

we'll see what happens as a far as twitter novels. at least here twitter seems just utterly dominated by marketing. the reverse chronology makes it so hard to read. . . .

having doubts but whatever

as long as the story keeps coming i'll keep writing

look forward to seeing your work unfold mon frere

thanks for the check in LeRoy. i've never been able to get into those bricks. something just too massive. there's a new one out though that i have my eye on -- Roberto Bolano's 2066. Bolano is chilean though, and writes from a way different perspective, one of an expatriate and in much less 'air-conditioned nightmare' style that dominates so much of US writers' work.

will check in with your new link here in a bit. work (http://matadornetwork.com) has been fully 'consuming' lately.

thanks Eva! yeah, this was fun to get and flip through for sure. overall a good experience, a learning experience. if we'd had more time and had been able to commission more pieces while we were down there it would have made hella difference
