While Works Cited doesn’t officially release until March 1st, you can order a copy online now over at Amazon (not sure why that is, but then again, there is a lot of the publishing world that is baffling to me). So, yeah, check it!

Just back from the awesome NonfictioNow Conference in beautiful Melbourne, Australia. It was good to see friends and meet new NF junkies and practitioners, or fellow “word sluts,” as David Shields rightfully deemed our ilk. My final panel–Memoir–Contemporary Forms–was a ton of good fun. What else would you expect with the eminent Bret Lott (one of the greatest people and finest writers on the planet without question). What resulted, in part, was this little blip that pinged on the radar over at Brevity’s blog. Check it! Oh, and speaking of pre-ordering, Works Cited, you may do so now, yo.
You can pre-order my new book, Works Cited: An Alphabetical Odyssey of Mayhem & Misbehavior now at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, the University of Nebraska Press, or through your local indie bookshop. 
My essay, “Esto Perpetua,” is in the current issue of Ecotone. It sits along some mind-blowing work by Peter Orner, Amy Leach, Robert Hass, Ron Rash, and others. The issue’s theme is “Remembrance.” Check it out. You know you want to.
My first post is up at www.przman.com recommending some books from 2011 that I think men (and, okay, everyone (duh)) should check out. Get there and then spend some time on the site. You won’t regret it. Seriously.
I will be contributing book-related pieces to the badass www.przman.com, a mens’ lifestyle website. My first piece–5 books from 2011 that must be on your radar–will appear in two weeks. Stay tuned. My contributor’s note us up, and my new fancy-schmancy author photo will be up soon. In the meantime, check out PRZman. It’s awesome.
Nice coverage of the 20th Anniversary issue of FUGUE over at The Quivering Pen. My essay, “Why I Stay,” gets a generous shout-out. Check it out. Then head over to FUGUE and order a copy. You know you want to.
