Internal News as of 7-14-12:

I've reached The Letter J in my Alphabet Soup column over at Persephone Magazine. The Cure up there make the cut.

Also, What I Watched Last Night: Drunk History, with a tribute to William Henry Harrison.

And since it was my birthday on Thursday, I talk about 29 Reasons I Do Not Fear Growing Older.

At Word Riot, this week's Notes From Elsewhere, there's some Sugar-love, more thoughts on revision, and a literary flask, among other things.

Enjoy.
