(For the record, Casperian Books is actually an "it", a limited liability company run by yours truly with regular contributions of labor from three or four other people, all of it more or less pro bono. Since we've only been around three years, COPA won't allow me to put our real "birthday" in the appropriate fields either, so I'm going with Armistice Day, just because I've always liked the last chapter of All Quiet on the Western Front.)

The Smoking Poet	Jul 1 2008 10:21 AM THE SMOKING POET SUMMER 2008 ISSUE And they arrived, and kept arriving, story after story, one better than the next. We were amazed and cheered at the riches at our door. Our first annual short story contest brought us stories from all points of the globe: all corners of the United States, as well as Italy, France, China, Spain and many more. One author was 16 years old, yet his writing certainly did not bespeak his young years. Other authors had years of achievement pinned like medals to their chests—published novels, awards and prizes, publishing histories that blushed with authority. That was not our criteria of judgment, however. There was only one criterion: literary quality. Come read winning entries by Grace Delobel, Martha Clarkson, Phil Haddock, and Paul Bowers. Also, feature author interviews with Lynn Stegner; YA author, Kate Buckley; artist-photographer, Ed Rode; fiction, non-fiction, poetry, cigar reviews, book reviews and much more. It’s our best yet and still getting better. http://thesmokingpoet. tripod. com/summer2008

It’s available for preorder on Amazon right now! I'll be doing a bunch of events in and around Philadelphia. For details, see my profile. Thanks for the friendship! Writing as D. H. Dublin, Jon McGoran is author of Blood Poison and Body Trace from Penguin Books. Look for Freezer Burn, in bookstores everywhere, June 3, 2008.

William Walsh	Jan 15 2008 4:04 PM Check it out: “Potato I Have” at ELIMAE this month. It’s a derived text that tracks Joyce’s use of the potato—a talisman for Bloom—in Ulysses.
William Walsh	Jan 2 2008 3:23 PM Read “Gate. Safe!” at Admit Two.
Paul Elwork	Oct 31 2007 1:27 AM Fill with mingled cream and amber, I will drain that glass again. Such hilarious visions clamber Through the chamber of my brain — Quaintest thoughts — queerest fancies Come to life and fade away; What care I how time advances? I am drinking ale today. -attributed to Edgar Allan Poe Here's to clambering visions, and happy Halloween!
