Charles Plymell
The July issue goes live July 15. It’s going to be massive. The Word document I’m coding it in right now is like 122 pages. And I haven’t even added the poetry yet. Yeesh.
I did a super-short story and an interview for Nick Ostdick’s site. It was a lot of fun.
Check it out.
Nick edits RAGAD, a literary broadside and online magazine.
Here are some samples of David Barringer’s interior design for The Suburban Swindle:
I know I am way overdue on a Pilcrow Lit Fest post.
Amy Guth put on a fantastic weekend that went off without a hitch. I got to hang out with James Stegall, Kevin Sampsell, Nick Ostdick, Steve Himmer, Kevin Fanning, Lauren Cerand, Jami Attenberg, Jennifer Banash, Willy Blackmore, Zach Dodson and Jonathan Messinger (and a bunch of other folks I’ll remember and want to put down on this list later).
There was pizza. There were drinks. There was really, really cheap parking (a quarter an hour!)
There was this constant energy about the whole weekend. The panels were insightful. The Quimby’s reading was well-attended. And, perhaps best of all, the silent auction raised $4,000 for the New Orleans Public Library Foundation. The money will go to helping them rebuild in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.
For a more details about what went down at Pilcrow, check out Amy’s blog.
