The Quirk is coming along beautifully. Many of the people who read this blog have sent kind words our way, and I just wanted to say thank you for all of them. Many are featured in the 'Comments' section of the site! Anyway, the poems are selected, officially closed today when we accepted a David J. Thompson (one of my faves) poem. I promise you all, come release, this issue is going to kick every kind of ass imaginable. If not, your money back, guaranteed... though I'm pretty sure just about everyone reading this will be receiving a free copy anyway, haha. I'd offer you your time back, but I can't get this damn flux capacitor to work...
In Kaveh news, I just got an acceptance today from Brian Morriesy (who incidentally has a poem in The Quirk... ;) ) over at Poesy. My poem "Graffiti" will be appearing in Poesy... at some point. His is a really great mag, I've gotten my hands on four or five issues, and in terms of layout, nobody does it better (that I've seen). The content is pretty ace too! The guy definitely knows what he's doing.
Also, three of my poems made it into the West Memphis 3 Benefit Anthology, a zine supporting a great cause put together by Misti Rainwater-Lites... other poets in the issue include Pat King, J.D. Nelson, Paul Tristram, Doug Draime, Katharine Polenberg and Leopold McGinnis. Y'all should check it out, they're still taking subs, and it's for a damn fine cause.
Thanks much for reading, I'll try to update a bit more often from now on...

jb - thanks... and i make no promises... ;) nah, I kid, i could never forget about you... i've got this fun case of the clap to remind me, always...
chris - thanks much bro. fluxing punk? sounds like the name of a south beach punk band circa 1987.... if only i could get that damn flux capacitor to work, i'd go back and front it.
Kav-
i'm sorry you got the crabs. i figured that would happen...ah dammit.
oh, and flux capacitors aren't real. sorry to break it to you, but you gotta learn sometime. it's fictitious. it's made-up Hollywood mumbo-jumbo...and not even good mumbo-jumbo at that.
fluxing punk. that's hard to say. i think i might get F-L-U-X tattooed on the fingers of my right hand and P-U-N-K on the fingers of my left. swell...
