PERSONAL GOOD NEWS for friends: My "Playpoem" based on a collage by Jean/Hans Arp ("Mountain, Table, Anchors, Navel") will appear in blazeVOX. And my crazy babies' fusion trilogy ("What to Do with the Babies") will be published in Del Sol Review.

Constant construction noises outside my windows are deconstructing my thoughts, impeding my creative processes. This nightmare has been going on for approximately 4 years, mainly on, but occasionally off. Now it's on with a vengeance. Someday I'll move out of this city. In the meantime, when I can crawl into a quiet hole, I'll write about it. I have a concept and maybe the first line.
