The rest of the world is in a crazy heat wave, while here is rainy off and on and 65-70…that’s the Pacific Northwest for you!
Been stuck in the house, so I’ve been reading a lot, although not well, because the antibiotics (for the aforementioned tonsillitis) make me groggy (finally read Joseph Campbell, which I’ve been meaning to do forever.) And ordered some books online (Margaret Atwood’s I am Happy, a book on mythology and superheroes for a series of classes I’m doing next year for high school students at Centrum, and another anthology of prose poems that I saw with good reviews on Goodreads.)
Worked on the (gulp) third manuscript. Third! The books are piling up here! And I need to start sending out work, I’ve been terrible this summer.
So who are some cool magazines reading this August? Anyone? Beuller?

He’s sick. Someone saw him pass out at 31 Flavors last night.
Thanks Simone.
No problem whatsoever.
