- Extremely happy to share this short story, with special thanks to Garielle Lutz for her commentary and for putting it up on Hobart. Written just as I tackled a Poussin essay, it bears those traces... www.hobartpulp.com/web_features/x

- From Issue 11 of Socrates. The first line is the lifeblood of most pieces...anywhere. These lines all grabbed me from the first and I knew I had to follow their strangeness and difference. socratesonthebeach.com
- Issue 11 is live. Thank you to all who helped and the great writers and the translator featured. socratesonthebeach.com
