I hit a streak where writing felt good and easy again and then I finished the text that was consuming my time and now I’m like “What am I doing.” Also sending out some stuff for the first time in like a year and getting lots of quick rejections. I like quick rejections better than prolonged rejections. I don’t mind either way, all that much.
But I guess I haven’t updated that most of the stuff I had forthcoming is now available:
At PANK:
LOOP, in the Queer Issue,
and an interview with me about the text.
At Lamination Colony:
Drawers, a story that moves from image to image that I wrote thinking about comix by CF & Hans Rickheit and also the movie Death Bed: The Bed That Eats.
In Artifice Issue 02:
Architecture, Anamnesis, a story that I actually didn’t end up reading at all during the 5 stops of the Artifice Mag MADNESS MUCH Tour I was on with awesome dudes. But I will tell you that it is a story I wrote after drawing a building after becoming obsessed with the architect Emilio Ambasz.
Also I am a participant in the MLP Stamp Stories project, which is cool. It’ll be included in a book too, which is awesome. The sentence is a modification of a sentence from a collaboration I did with the painter Christian Campos. I sent the collab to a chapbook contest with a $15 entrance fee, maybe ill-advised, who knows.
I guess I could have just saved some space and been like “here I updated my C.V.” but whatever.
Here is a link to all my HTMLGIANT posts so far.
Currently, I am pretty obsessed with Jannis Kounellis.
Particularly, I think I am obsessed with intentionally mis-reading Jannis Kounellis. He was a Greek dude who left Greece and moved to Italy where he became “part” of Arte Povera, which is the former obsession that lead directly here. He posits himself halfway between Klein & Manzoni, but Klein is more interesting to me because Klein was batshit insane and loved the noun “void” as much as I do. The point is I like to pretend Kounellis’s works are weird metaphysical environments for crazy shit to happen. They’re still really cool. Whatever.
