Hobart 12 Bonus Web Issue

- Hobart 12 is on its way. Look for it in April! Having read some of the stories early on in the process, I can say this is another fantastic issue. There's work from Karl Taro Greenfeld, Aubrey Hirsch, Roxane Gay, Dave Housley, Etgar Keret, Dylan Nice, Brian Evenson & Lily Hoang and many, many others. If that's not enough to convince you: bonus issue at the website this month!

- Speaking of new: new issues of Dark Sky, elimae, decomP.

- My story "The Winter War" is going to be published in the upcoming Ekphrasis (a word, admittedly, I've only recently learned--for a guy who's been in school as long as I have, you'd think...) issue of Sou'wester. I'm really excited about this. First, because Sou'wester is a terrific journal that I like quite a lot, and second because though this is one of my favorite stories from my thesis collection, it is very long and very strange and I was beginning to think I wouldn't place it. So many thanks to Valerie Vogrin and the other folks at Sou'wester for taking a chance on it.
