I helped publish early parts of this in @thewalrus, but nothing compares to having the finished product in my hand. @jasonguriel's On Browsing is an absolute joy to read—one perfect sentence chasing another. Grateful to @biblioasis for making room for such books on their list.
@bookgaga @biblioasis @SealeyChallenge !!!!! Thanks, Vicki! Have you seen the dorky video version I made? youtube.com/watch?v=v-XAig…
Belatedly: Romantic has been shortlisted for the Derek Walcott Prize. Congratulations to all on the list! arrowsmithpress.com/walcott

I don't think I've ever read a poem about the perils of slow motion before. Here's one, a splendid mini-masterpiece from the new @markcallanan book with @biblioasis:
I'm launching my new poetry collection on Wednesday Nov 17 at 7PM ET. Watch it on Facebook (fb.me/e/1VTW1judX) or on YouTube (youtube.com/watch?v=kgKTsQ…)
@biblioasis I have a million hit points and maximum charisma! biblioasis.com/shop/forthcomi…
