I am sitting at the kitchen table, drinking a black cup of coffee. The mug is a cluster of fucking moose. The coffee steams. I am baking pigs in a blanket. Free Speech, "The People's Darling Privilege" Struggles For Freedom of Expression in American History sits to my right, a cat is at my feet and I am going over the final draft of Gossamer. Everything is coming together.
I've been dreading this moment. Afraid of something, re-reading (I've re-read it a thousand times, revised, edited, etc, but the 'final' time... so dramatic) but to my surprise it's a joy, a blessing. I want to share this with you soon.
+ Ordered some books from Calamari press (they are having a sweet liquidation sale) looking forward to sinking my teeth. Peter Markus and David Ohle.
+ The new Gold Wake Press site looks great, check it out. They also have a print series now with their first book being Zachary C. Bush’s The Silence of Sickness.

I can't wait to partake.
I can't wait for you to read it Matt. Thanks for the support.
Enjoy that final time, Ben. I know what you mean, though: scary. But don't worry - it's a great book...
Eric,
You're one of the few people to have read it in a nearly finished state, and I thank you for your help and encouragement.
