I used to entertain the idea that I was vaguely a kind of musician, but I've not really made music for a few years now. What I did make and release under the name of Novak is available here. Should be free - novaknoise.bandcamp.com/music

Novak is Kenny Mooney.

New episode of Writing The Rapids is up now! Meghan Lamb and I talk about her upcoming collection Mirror Translation, culture shock, and how easy it would be for someone who doesn’t speak much English to kidnap me.

This is today! Chicago people, come on out! We will finish before kick off!
On February 9th I will be in conversation with Erik Rebain, author of Arrested Adolescence, on the “motives, secrets, and desires” of Leopold and Loeb at the Leather Archives and Museum in Chicago. It’s going to be a cool event and I hope some of you make it out!
