Kris King's chapbook is available for preorder! These flash pieces are so good. I've read or heard Kris read many of them over the years and now you can too. Pick it up. You won't regret it.
I made this photograph in a Los Angeles hotel, overlooking the Hollywood Hills & the iconic Hollywood Sign. I watched the light change throughout the day & made a plan to shoot the cover. I'm so pleased with the result. This book is unreal! Pre-order & save $2!

Do other writers have dedicated "reading" copies of their books? Mine are all beat up and full of notes.

Getting ready for my reading tomorrow night at 7 at MoCA Arlington.
