an essay I published in Black Clock called "Broken Seashells", about the sound of the sky above a landlocked valley on the Isle of Skye, among other things.

Right: I have to read that . . .

I think I need to read this collection, but nowhere do I find a reference to its title, unless it's Midnight Feasts.

It's the title of Erzebet's post—Chanteys for the Fisherangels. The whole project arose out of this exchange.

Speaking of feasts, which of your own collections would you recommend I get first?

Whichever you prefer to read first. Singing Innocence and Experience is primarily prose, Postcards from the Province of Hyphens primarily poetry. There is also a novelette-chapbook, The Dybbuk in Love. None of them contains any of my recent work, since they were all published in the summer of 2005, but fortunately a decent amount of that is scattered around the internet. I can probably provide links if you give me some warning.
