Although James Stotts has been a follower of this blog for quite a while, I somehow missed the fact that he has a fine blog of his own, The Fugue Aesthetics of J. H. Stotts, which I’ve added to the Recommended Links list. I especially want to note his post today about the debut of “a new journal of poetry and prose” named Little Star. James has work in the inaugural issue (I just ordered my copy here at a special discounted price), where he shares space with a few poets you might have heard of—including Seamus Heaney, Derek Walcott, Mary Jo Salter and Nina Bogin. Congratulations, James!
Joe,<br /><br />You'll be glad to know that there's a full portfolio of my newest work (about twenty pages!) sitting right under Durs Grunbein, and a lot of the other writers Ann Kjellberg knows from her twenty years at the NYRB, and the great overlooked Mass. poet Melissa Green, who is contributing editor.<br />Thanks for ordering and drumming up more business.<br />James
