Hi everyone! I just started contributing book reviews to PopMatters. My first one is a review of an anthology called Mortified: Love is a Battlefield, a collection of teen diary entries from the pre-Internet era. Thanks, hope all are doing well!

Mad Hatter latest column

Hello fellow alum,

The latest issue of my semi-regular satirical column for the irreverent New York based Mad Hatters’ Review is online. In this issue, I explore personal ads (I’m oddly obsessed with personal ads) and I try to untangle acronyms and offer suggestions as to meaning such as:

SDDIBP- Sugar Daddy in Big Pants

Cheers!

p.s. Thanks to all column writing alum who read and reviewed my novel excerpt during the Amazon next big novel contest. I did not advance to the finalists, but was excited to make it to the semi-finalists and greatly appreciated all the feedback.

Street Style: Iekeliene Stange

It's been a while, but this new "street style" piece is now online at Nylon magazine's website. For those not familiar, the girl featured is Dutch model Iekeliene Stange who's made herself quite an impression in the fashion world. She's interesting.

Happy spring everyone!
