Massive Update... maybe

Wed, 06/03/2009 - 14:30 — johnso73

So, I've been giving love to the um... backend of this site far more regularly than to the whole 'content generation' aspect. Thems the breaks, I suppose, when time is limited.

But, lucky for the interweb, that doesn't mean I've not been listening to or reading about interesting things. Plus, have a few bits of good news to share about myself, too.

I'll try to clip off the easy things here.

  • On May 1st, Guernica published my short story, Anaphylaxis (yeah, the one that I'm now interested in exploring as a collaborative text). They are a tremendous magazine, with lots of really well written and smart content. Why they published me, I couldn't tell you. I recommend checking them out, not just for my story, but for blogs by people like Robert Reich. (A point of pride to say I shared a venue with him, even an email newsletter.) Esquire also named them as one of the top five places for fiction online.

    So: Yay for me. Also, was awarded a Sappenfield Fellowship from the Universtiy of Wisconsin-Milwaukee for general admiration of my work. Also, received a Teaching Assistant position for next year.
