The dog upstairs won’t shut up but I can’t hate him. He’s up there, alone, all day. Making noise must be the only way he knows he’s not a ghost.

Two weeks ago I spent three days in Los Angeles, at AWP, the yearly convention held by the Association of Writers & Writer’s Programs. Held in a different city each year, AWP is an opportunity for writers to step away from our laptops, if only for a short while, and to bond with other writers, hopefully learning a few things in the process.

Clockwise from top: Rajiv Mohabir, Lucas Mann, Kerry Howley, Maggie Nelson, and John D’Agata.

LA Metro: you could have made that less confusing. I decided to get to and from LAX for AWP via the trains. My wife found a site that had really good directions and was comically…

was awesome.
Immensely grateful for being part of BOAAT + Diode + Quarterly West's stellar reading at La Cita Bar. There was sushi & cake, there was tequila & Tecate, there were new friends & old friends, & there were so many good words.
