The PANK blog keeps me interested. The New York Times gets as depressed as I do. Girls with Insurance keeps getting better. Fried Chicken and Coffee always does it to me. I may be rambling, but I lost the weekend.

Happy Birthday to Me, Happy Birthday to Me. I got to New Orleans before I turned 30!
It made me ache to write, but unable to slow down long enough to pen a single word. I ate chicken livers for the first time. I’d go back just for the chicken livers. Truly, New Orleans is a city for writers to visit with their senses wide open. And, Oh…to live there! Where else can you walk down the same street twice in one day and hear these two sentences:
“That’s the street where I saw them lizards doing the oral sex.”
“Those are the fetuses you never see.”
The story ideas are everywhere. There are robots, pantsless guitar players, and cute girls with bike powered tamale carts. There’s even a fuzzy haired poet with a typewriter and a sign offering “Fresh Poems for Sale” amid the drunk throng on Bourbon Street. I’m in love.
Other things I love! You will love them too, I bet.
Hit-or-Miss Elegy by Clay Matthews
A non-lame publisher for children’s books? Really? Yes!
A literary magazine for The Splinter Generation.
This documentary made me cry out loud like a toddler. It’s…necessary.
When Google does something cool.
This video will make you feel weird.
Enjoy!

But I’m not trying to push you or anything. 
This review by Spencer Dew that went up today at GwI is mad to live. Possibly the greatest review of anything ever. I feel this deeply and sincerely and beg of any commenter to refute me with better examples of how something should be reviewed.
And this essay by Ursula K. Le Guin, the “sci fi” writer who’s written little besides classics in her years.

First: what is an ISSN?
It stands for International Standard Serial Number. As the name implies, it is for serial publications. It’s a unique eight-digit number which will identify your publication among the myriad of such publications the world over. It is the equivalent of an ISBN for a magazine. In the United States, it is issued by the Library of Congress.
