giant 'joy williams' post

this post is in 4 parts, click links to view
1. her fiction (quotes, commentary, digression about kmart realism, etc.)

2. her non-fiction (long quoted passages, commentary, etc.)

3. her blurbs of other people's books, various things she's said (that i found using lexisnexis), and an interview with david rakoff where she says she drives a bronco

4. her ungooglable essay (unsure even what anthology it's from anymore) on writing, 'shifting things,' of which a year ago i checked out the book (some anthology) in which it appears in and then typed it out and e-mailed it to myself and my then-writing workshop and will now copy and paste here
also, out of the seven hundred or so people who came here from bookslut yesterday, i recieved over forty e-mails of joy williams anecdotes, 'tips,' and interesting facts

just kidding, out of the seven hundred or so people i recieved zero e-mails about joy williams

yes, an army of EVIL santa kids, who are tired of grown ups using the threat of santa to keep them on their best behavior. they are going to give new meaning to the phrase "naughty or nice."
