How is your health? Are you working on Pushkin? How is the sea?

My poem "A Bulgakov Headache" is now online at Stone Telling. It's part of the long-awaited Body issue, full of poets I love and people I need to read more from; it is about chronic pain and one of my favorite writers, so I consider it a good selection for this Arisia morning. (The illustration is lovely.) Go, read all the different kinds of shapes there are of people. They are all worth knowing.

I love your poem
I love it
I love it
I want to have tea with it
and tell it hello

This is one of the best things anyone has ever said about anything I've written.

and it should possibly be a poem itself.

W00t! And it's always good to share a TOC with you. A lovely illustration, agreed.

Enjoy Arisia!

I am very glad "The Nerve Harp" found a home, and especially that one. More, please.

Enjoy Arisia!

So far, so really good! Sunday is going to be the test—I have to get up at least three hours earlier than I've been managing lately in order to make the public transit work, but I think it will be all right. I forget that conventions are energizing as well as exhausting. I can't keep it up for long, but a weekend, I always have.

Congratulations on the poem's going online!

I've liked that poem since first I saw it, and I'm glad it's got such a fine illustration to go with it.

I hope Arisia will go very well for you.

Thank you. Stone Telling is amazing about the photographs they pick.

Thank you! It's a very strong issue; it was a long wait, but worth it.

Enjoy Arisia!

I am so far!
