Somehow it's September.  Are you like me and wondering where the summer went? Well, at least I still have a vacation attitude in that I remain indolent and easily distracted.

Daniel Chacón has revamped his website. His next book," is a hybrid of flash-stories and loops in text and … [Read more...]

Lost in space: un-Googled

08/26/2013 By Ellen Beals 2 Comments

I Google myself every day just to see if there is anything new. I Google Solace in So Many Words too. Think of me what you will. Imagine my surprise when this website did not show up on Google.
