Why I Love Reading

The new issue of SmokeLong Quarterly is live. I've only read two stories from it so far, but both of them are amazing.

If you want to feel a little crushed and weepy, head over to Dan Chaon's "The Hobblers."

If the story all by itself doesn't do you in, then read the interview.

And then, to recover, read Amanda Nazario's "Matt: How It Will Happen."

It'll make you laugh a little and then it'll bring the hammer right back down.

Still, you'll be glad for it. Just like always.

I just discovered SmokeLong Quarterly today, and I am so in love with that story.
It rocks.
I want to write flash.

Chad, jeez, I don't read other writers' blogs enough. How embarrassing this is that I'm thanking you a month and a half later. To punish myself I'm now going to update all my links and write a blog entry about how I should be reading other writers' blogs more.

(Thank you!)
