Shameless Self Promotion
Writing a post on one blog and putting a link to it on another blog is pathetic, and I don't know why anyone would ever do it. But let's say Thomas Benton wrote an article about how people shouldn't go to humanities graduate school, and you wanted to write a response to it, that wouldn't be so bad, would it?
I don't know. The front page where the reviews usually appear was totally black, and I had to click on each review title on the side to see it. It's fine now though.
i happened to find this randomly because it was on something like the 12th page of google after i searched "shameless self promotion." so here's the deal, sparky: shameless self promotion has more than enough literary merit and its person has enough artistic sensibilities to be able to ignore and even quash your so-called "review," but i have to leave you a tip. if you want to "review" something, especially the SPAN of an ENTIRE THINGY, you'd better come up with something a little better than "every inside looks like somebody barfed a punch of pencils." it's certainly easy enough to tell that your talents will never make it into the pages of shameless self promotion, so i wouldn't worry about offending anyone with your word vomit. maybe you should go take a class, brush up on some grammar skills, and write something again when you have something worthwhile to say.

Well, I guess we finally killed R3, since for some reason there's no text on the front page anymore.
Ok, it's better now.
What happened?

Glenn, stop trying to break the internets.

just a little blast from the past
Ahhh, the classics.
Guess who I saw at MY "sexual harassment conference"? She's cuter than I would have thought...
Who? RuPaul? Judith Butler? Dame Judy Dench?
Wrong, wrong, and wrong! It was someone who could quash us all (even though I am like a foot taller than her).
The woman from Fence magazine? I don't actually know her name because no one cares about poetry except other poets.
Right you are, Laurie. Right you are. I wish you could have seen how right you are this past weekend.
