Get This Now!



Drop what you're doing and buy this now! Now, I tell you!

Why should you, you ask? Let me, as the kids say, break it down for you. Stories by, among others, Aimee Bender, Rikki Ducornet, Shelley Jackson, Miranda July, and Kelly Link. To say nothing about the poetry and the fact that the "Special Advisory Editor" is Rick Moody.

Believe me, I've read the first set of poems and the first three stories. I wanted to dry my tears with my torn-up manuscripts, caught between feelings of jumping for joy and jumping into a gorge because of the subconscious fear that I'll never, ever write anything that good.

Now, go on, get it. I'll be fine. Just go ;).
