Yet again I want to plug my bf Chris’s stunning book. It’s the work of a working mind; these poems read like essays and were performed (mostly) live as loose lecture-y things first; it is intellectual and psychological vulnerability as art. Just take a look at that TOC.
joyland editions is open for novella submissions (20,000–60,000 words) through the end of the year!

an excerpt from @ua_wilk’s book, “the keeper,” is in @clereviewbooks today!
it’s “about” a concussion and losing language and one of fernando pessoa’s alter egos and a lost friend and suburban texas and regaining language and i’m biased but i think it’s really brilliant

^The Asterism link just dropped... go preorder "Information Age" by Cora Lewis, edited by Maddie(!) for the brand new Joyland Editions! 💻🎊
this summer, @JoylandPub will publish its first book! it’s been a real dream so far to talk continually about fiction with @michellelynking and to edit @cora’s novella, “information age”!
Our first novella, INFORMATION AGE by Cora Lewis (@cora), is available for pre-order.
The narrator of INFORMATION AGE is a journalist at an online news site reporting on technology, the economy, and politics in the late 2010s. Told in vignettes and dialogue—overheard and divulged—INFORMATION AGE is spare, funny, and attentive, a playful blurring of public and private life.
INFORMATION AGE was edited by Madeleine Crum (@MaddieCrum).
