29 March 2011 A Questionnaire

FoundPress recently asked all its spring 2011 writers for responses to five questions, for the magazine’s blog. Here’s what FP asked me (paraphrased):

1) What can you tell us about the origins of Addresses?

2) Your story is set in the 1960s but still feels contemporary. Did you deliberately try to make it so?

3) What’s the role of literature in social action?

4) What are the advantages and challenges of writing short fiction?

5) What excites you most about online/digital storytelling?

For my responses, go to http://foundpress.com/blog/?p=149

Answers from Danny Goldman, Kirsty Logan, and Lana Storey, the other contributors to the first issue of FoundPress, will appear on the blog soon.

Recently at http://www.foundpress.com a new story of mine titled “Addresses” appeared. FoundPress is an online literary journal, brand new, and I’m happy to be in the premiere issue. You can read more about FoundPress on that site of course, and in Quill & Quire online, and at http://www.openbooktoronto.com

There are four stories in the issue, by Danny Goodman, Kirsty Logan, Lana Storey, and me. Each story has its own gorgeous cover as well as a brief bio and some blurbs; each can be purchased separately, or you can buy the whole issue. Whatever you choose is downloadable in various media — see the website.

I’m looking forward to seeing how this new form of magazine works in the world!
