Two little pieces of news:
Robert Brewer interviews me at Poetic Asides here.
Karen Weyant kindly gives me a shout out in her discussion of nuclear anxiety at the Chautauqua Literary Arts blog here.
Thanks for all your well-wishes after the previous post. It turns out I broke two bones in my foot, so I am in a big Robocop-esque leg cast, and then I sprained my wrist using crutches. Soon, at this rate, like Darth Vader, I’ll be more machine than woman 🙂 Still got to visit the San Diego zoo when my parents came to town – thank goodness for ramps and rented wheelchairs!
Happy Martin Luther King Day!

Fantastic interview.

Love the interview. I too spent many happy hours on the TRaSh-80; in high school I ran a computer lab for a community-education center teaching basic computer skills to kids. Ah, the glory days of BASIC.
Be better soon!

You’ll be bionic. (That’s a superhero, right?)
Best wishes.
