I have a poem in the new @new-sinews.bsky.social, thanks to @illepitaph.bsky.social. The poem — Grains of Rice — is long, complicated; traces inheritances, internalizations, and overlapping violences in my family's history (in Guangzhou, Hiroshima); and takes place at a Wendy's in New Jersey.

coolly compulsive neo-epistolary novel ... chockfull of comically curlicuing texture ... with the amazingly assured artificiality of the "letter-ness" branching into all manner of reverberant riffs regarding the present day's ridiculousness

He could not remember where he had heard it before, the idea of one side of the Pacific as dream, the other reality. But which was reality and which dream?

another gem from the archives—& to my mind somehow maybe *the* essential anchor-text orienting everything new_sinews has published ... a poem sprawling amazingly assuredly into its own vast uncategorizability ...

3 of the best short-shorts I ever wrote—Carnival of Souls; Fat, Sugar, and Salt; and Style—got collected in the latest, fancily produced issue of @cherrytreelit.bsky.social.

Thank you to Fiction Editor Sarah Blackman—the author of a haunting and complex novel called Hex that I really dug.
