From the Paris of New England: Interviews with Poets and Writers

I am currently working on a collection of my interviews that for the most part appeared in The Somerville News. Caitlin Jackson, an intern from the Connectitut College, is currently editing the collection. This book hopefully will be out in the fall through my own press the "Ibbetson Street Press." Mike Basinski, curator the Poetry and Rare Book Collection at the University of Buffalo has agreed to write the introduction. This will be volume 1 ... I plan to to do a second volume in late 2009...if the god lord is willing and the creek don't rise...
