about this author
I run a press called Calamari Press.
I edit a lit mag called Sleepingfish.
I blog at 5cense.
I wrote a book called Poste Restante. Here's a review of it in The Believer. I did some chapbooks and collaborations before that, either as an artist or writer. Sometimes I make book covers and art for books. I like books.
I'm working on a new book called Our Mother the Fish. Hopefully I'll have it finished soon.
