Hej Brooklyn,
just a note that me own wee books are now added & searchable. soon they will be connected to my profile. & soon i'll upload the ungovernable books as well
cheers,
lars
Yes, I did write a quiz question about Taiga. I wrote a handful of questions about contemporary poets, small presses, and small press editors to interrupt the neverending litany of Jane Austen, Harry Potter, and cheesy sci fi.
Oddly enough, I noticed that quite a few quiz-takers took the time to point out that they did NOT like my questions.
That's because they have poopy diapers.
Hi Brooklyn,
We're both authors with names that correspond to interesting locations in the U.S. It's nice to be your friend.
Cheers,
Austin
Yeah, absolutely I thought it was great. Thanks for checking out the blog, I really appreciate it. Yeah, I'm currently writing something like poetry. I've taken a few undergraduate poetry courses with Joshua Wilson at Loyola University, but I've got a lot to learn. Any advice for one so new to the scene?
Hello Brooklyn,
I recently read your chapbook The Milk for Free, and absolutely loved it! I especially liked Derby, Said Darby and Pity Cassandra. Thanks for accepting my friend request--
Yours,
Michael.
thanks for the add. I was actually going to request you...but hadn't done so, so thanks and nice to meet you!
jessica.

alright alright alright...as far as SCP goes i'm publishing a collection by adam fieled this wednesday and have basically finished formatting one by daniela olszewska...keep your eyes peeeeeeeeeeled :)
mexico city blues is probably the only book of poetry by kerouac that i like...the other few are either just okay or really nothing to write home to ma about...
Hi Brooklyn-

You will find it even more addictive than facebook, I'm afraid :)
