The Walls Are Closing in on Us, by Joshua Trent Brown, and Feast of the Pale Leviathan, by John Chrostek.

Feast your eyes on these

Just reboosting this to remind everyone that there's just two days left to submit comments to the FCC on these proposals. Hundreds upon hundreds of comments have been sent since I first posted this, which is fantastic to see. Make sure you send in a comment using the guide in the link before Friday!

As y'all head off to #awp26, I am calculating our author royalties. I cannot stress this enough - buy small press books directly from publishers. It's the way everyone makes the most money and art can continue to happen!

Excited for this one!

I have never enjoyed reading from Man in a Cage (I’d rather just talk to people about it if they’re interested), so I read poems at my last AWP. Read whatever you want! Wish I could be there. Enjoy!

I wish I was, too. I think next year is Chicago, which is as close as it gets to me, so I'll try to make that one.

It's definitely a scam. I've gotten several voicemails like this. They want to represent my book to major publishers and send me to international conferences.

Satellite proposals threaten the night sky In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the agency responsible for authorizing satellite launches and operations…

The FCC just opened public comments on SpaceX's plan to launch a million satellites to do AI compute in space. Under the current proposal, an environmental review won't be required. Please consider submitting a public comment to oppose this damaging plan.

Done!

I’ve gotten several. These “literary agents” always sound like they’re reading from a script. And doing it badly.

Thank you! It looks like the Malarkey bookstore is sold out of Pigs! Which I recommend, so folks can head over to Bookshop: bookshop.org/p/books/deli...

You made them?

Those are rad

Absolutely!

Not to gloss over the social and environmental issues here... but a more analog world might mitigate those... maybe.

I haven't read this book, but these excerpts.... reminding me that I wish there was more analog in my life... more physical music, more magazines... maybe letters?

Sorry to hear that, and hope you recover quickly. The brushwork is great!

Friends, schedule your colonoscopies.

I started running in November, and January was *rough* between extreme cold and ice and being sick. But February’s been better (so far).

Man, I hate that I'm gonna miss this!

Congrats!
