ellen kennedy, nick antosca, dennis loy johnson, giant flying squirrel

here is ellen kennedy's photoshop depiction of the very retarded giant moth
here is ellen kennedy's microsoft paint depiction of salman rushdie and a giant squid
nick antosca posted the cover for his novel FIRES

i like the cover; i want it for all my books, no matter what i write

the cover is the kind of cover that would be very good with any book

imagine that cover with a book called YOU ARE A LITTLE BIT HAPPIER THAN I AM
dennis loy johnson spent time with me on the phone editing my novel EEEEE EEE EEEE

it was good to discuss hamsters, headbutting, and moose with dennis loy johnson

here is a giant flying squirrel
this giant flying squirrel has an MFA in poetry from brown university

its favorite poets include mary oliver and alice notley

it has been published in the beloit poetry journal, the wisconsin review, and juked

i have no idea why i drew a button on his jacket saying 'free tibet'. i have never seen his name affiliated with anything dealing with tibetan freedom and am by no means trying to slander the dalai lama by placing pro-tibetan freedom propaganda amongst a vulgar depiction of salman rushdie. nor am i trying to express any of my own opinions. i just wanted to make that clear.

i googled salman rushdie to really make sure he doesn't speak for tibetan freedom while writing that. i feel embarrassed.

he probably has but paid wikipedia 10 million dollars to not write any articles about it for fear that the new york times' will write an article titled 'salman rushdie likes baseball more than writing'.

I'm on Juked right now.

I'm always on Juked, though, if you believe that I am the only person in the world.

Like I do.

i hope john wang googles himself and finds this then feels confused and unsure about wether or not im making fun of him and then because he's so paranoid i might insult his magazine he will accept every poem and story i've ever written and replace everything on his site with them.
