cow_small.jpgInside this Issue:

This month we have new Q&As with authors Skip Horack, Bill Konigsberg, Margot Singer, Sandra Simonds, and Rebecca Wolff. “I would like to stop relying on scenes that utilize screaming or crying as the climactic moment. These bodily explosions seem to come too easily to me as a writer…”Bill KonigsbergWe also have new podcasts from Pulitzer winner Robert Olen Butler, Matt Bondurant, Kara Candito, and Lauren Groff.

From our archives, we have an on-demand poem written by David Kirby and an interview with Emily Russo, daughter of Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Russo.

Finally, a few sites worth visiting:

  • To celebrate its sixtieth anniversary, the National Book Foundation has well-known writers blogging about their favorite National Book Award winners.
  • The Boston Review publishes great essays, poetry and stories—much of it online.
