I’m a Magpie
Check out the latest issue of Five Fingers Review! That’s my piece on the cover: And you’ll have to buy a copy to see the rest, as my blogger layout goes all screwy when I try and put them in (or if you’re really cheap, go to my flickr page. Cheapo). Anyway, it’s a collage based on a poem that I *think I posted an early form of up in this here blog (I’ll have to poke through the archives a bit and find that). But, yay! I’m published! I feel so excited, and so, so exposed. I don’t think this issues in stores yet, but you can eventually find it at your local Barnes & Noble, or order it online (sometime in the next few weeks) through Small Press Distribution. Eek! |

ok…commenting is dangerous. what should come across as really excited, but subdued, awe may be misinterpreted as some kind of not-so-excited big-sister-y-ness.
nonononono!
very excited! wow with many subdued exclamation points.
wow.

ahmagosh! I can order your work on Barnes & Noble? woah, I’m so proud and excited, I can’t wait to see it, too. I remember when you were telling me about this last spring, but you didn’t want to say too much since it was so early, oh, congrats!

Wow! I had no idea! I can’t wait to hold it in my hot little hands and tell perfect strangers in coffee shops “See that girl? I know her!” SO HAPPY FOR YOU!

Oh, I love it! Collage fascinates me. So deceptively simple, yet so hard to do nicely. This looks absolutely perfect.
My dad sometimes buys Five Fingers Review. I’ll suggest that he picks this one up for me next time we’re in a bit city.
