1) Here's a photo I just found of me and my friend Bart Schaneman at a bar in Portland. I think Al Sundvall took it when he and Phil Holmes visited after an ATP date.

2) Last week my record label Hello America Stereo Cassette put out a poetry tape of the book Prairie Girl Collective. The book is out via my friends Party Trick Press. It's rural writing which is something I love.

3) Jessie Lynn McMains was interviewed recently by Left the Hose On podcast. Find that here. Make sure to pick up their poetry tape from my label. It's a crusher.

4) Got a sweet package of Trident Press books in the mail from Nate Perkins. New ones from the pals Mallory Smart and Tanner Ballengee.

5) Here's the farm's barn. Storm light.

6) Nicole Morning has a fucking killer essay up today at my label's site www.helloamericalit.com as part of her column. Much recommended.

7) The "food novel" has been sent off to press. Can't wait for you to see the design job Bran did on it. Should have preorders up in October. It'll be out in January via Three One G and Bread & Roses Press.
