past ten anthology available for pre-order

1/5/2025

 
I just discovered that THE PAST TEN, ed. Donald Quist, Kali White VanBaale, and Bailey Gaylin Moore (Cornerstone Press), which will include my essay "January 10, 2014," is available for pre-order here. They also have some nice blurbs for the book:

"A reflective mosaic, made up of some of the most exciting voices in American literature today." —Jaquíra Diaz

"The 71 essays in The Past Ten may be 'fun-sized' (1,000 wors max) but boy, do they pack a wallop. Heartbreaking and heartrending, even the most harrowing of them full of hope." —David Jauss

"The many memoirists assembled here create compelling codas, artificial endings, closing parentheses in order to look back and look closely, sit and sort, assess and assay with gifted elan and elegant exegesis, and see for the very first time these very mean and memorable meanings." —Michael Martone

"What a powerful and brimming treasure trove of stories this is: stories of transformation of metamorphosis, of loss, of love, and of becoming, A persuasive and ingenious ode to time: its waves and meanders, its sharp cures and gentle arms." —Robin Marie MacArthur

I guess it's not the only essay I wrote last year, as I wrote some new ones for THE LUNATICS' BALL and revised many, but it may be the only essay I published. I thought of PAST TEN as a literary journal, but actually it's not. The content is solicited (until now, anyway) and it's a blog (laid out a bit more like a journal, not a continuous column like most blogs). Glad it's turned into a book. I'm excited about participating in the offsite reading at AWP at the end of March. We made our reservations at the. Marriott, the fancy hotel at the center of things. Haven't decided whether we'll fly or drive. Flying Southwest to Los Angeles just before Christmas was unexpectedly pleasant.
