UnCha

Dear Readers, as I am sure most, if not all of you know, quite a few of my fellow Californians attempted to abolish the death penalty here in this state. Instead of putting monsters like the one I will tell you about in this column to death, they wanted to give them life sentences...

Author Interview: Christopher Moore

November 18, 2012

Of all the writer’s minds I’d like to crawl inside of and investigate for a while, the mind of Christopher Moore would definitely be in my top ten. Probably my top three, actually. With his vivid imagination, exceptional storylines, exquisite characters, and wicked sense of humor, I doubt there’d ever be a moment that...

Readers and Characters by Wm. Luke Everest         “The reader follows the character, not the story,” said Scott Bradfield. This was scrawled in red ink at the top of my title page. I had a billion questions and I was nervous of bombarding the man as he probably had a novel...

The Kindness of Writers by Jared S. Anderson

October 30, 2012
by Alexander Jansson

It’s been said that writing is a solitary vocation, and while that’s true in terms of sitting at the desk doing the actual writing, it is far from the truth in terms of community. As I’ve made my way down this merry path of writing, I have repeatedly been surprised by the kindness of...

Rivers and estuaries So here’s the last (unless I have afterthoughts) of my mini-series about environments or types of places that help to inspire my poems and feature in them. Hmm… maybe forest? We’ll see. Anyway, this is about rivers. Many poets have been fascinated by rivers – fast ones, slow ones, big ones,...

When I first met Lori L. Clark, I was immediately struck by her quick wit and awesome sense of humor. Lori is fun, optimistic, and genuinely kind. Having had the pleasure of reading her novel, Tyler Falls, (which you can find on Amazon) I can also say she’s a skilled writer with a knack...
