hey Rusty! your book arrived the other day--thank you so much! am v excited to read it...
all the best,
JT.

Ah hah. I see! Yeah, as I was perusing your list of books, I noticed that you've read a bunch of stuff from the Dubuses, DeWitt Henry, Bill Knott -- there was Emerson faculty all over your book list! So I went back and checked your profile, and there it was: Emerson.

And then, as I thought about it, I recalled seeing your name around -- we were probably both published in the BSR, or maybe we both read for the BSR. I don't think we had any classes together, though.

Do you keep in touch with anybody from the program? I corresponded with Leah Hirsch, Dave Watta, and Richard Morris for a while, and I went back to guest-teach for Bill Knott a couple of times. It's been a loooooong time since I've kept up with any of them, though.

Thank you for buying my little book!

Hey, guess what? I got my MFA at Emerson too! I was there from 1993-1995. Habbout you?

I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me yesterday. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened to create so many messages. Some weird glitch.

Argh...this is terrible...

Again, I'm very sorry.

Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats.

P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Hi Rusty!

Here’s wishing you a yippee-filled Yuletime overflowing with yard-long yams, yapping yoyo-yanking yetis, yak-milk yeast-cakes, and yellow yarn-yielding year-end yard-gnomes.

-Jeremy :)

Thanks for sharing, Rusty! I haven't read any of those works, so I'll definitely check them out.

Here's wishing you the best in all aspects of your life.

-Jeremy :)

Hi Rusty!

If you don't mind sharing--I was wondering, what's your favorite book of all time?

Here’s wishing you a weekend filled with wacky whims, wonderful weirdness, and well-disposed werecats.

-Jeremy :)

Thanks for the friendship, Rusty! Here’s wishing you a fantastic day filled with fabulous fates, fanciful festivities, and frolicking phantom footstools. :)
