So, yes, this book rocks, and so does Dallas, frankly. As many may remember, Dallas dropped by to program my iPod, not with his favorite songs but with songs he thought the Happy Booker would enjoy. That's the kind of guy he is.
Today he drops in on largehearted boy to share a few tracks that his Drive Like Hell characters would enjoy, as part of Book Notes, a great idea from a blog that is waay cooler than mine. Go check it out.
Behind the Music
Recent blog visitor, the talented Quinn Dalton, drops in on M.J. Rose’s Backstory blog to share a few thoughts on what went into writing her new story collection, Bulletproof Girl. We are big fans of the short story around here and found Dalton's collection to be the real deal. Absolutely worth the read.
The Great Dan Network
Dan Wickett is a busy man. Or he’s a robot. We’re not sure. But while holding down a full time job he’s also had time for a few literary diversions:
Dan Wickett reviews the entire oeuvre of writer, John McManus, here, here and here .
And interviews McManus here
Whew… but that’s not all. In addition to reviewing and interviewing writers, he also had a little sitdown with 9 editors at some really great literary journals and picked their brains about all manner of things literary. Read the panel discussion here .
Then he takes the time to review all the recent literary journals he’s been thumbing through, here .
In his spare time, Dan interviewed poet, C. Dale Young here, and reviewed Young’s recent poetry collection here.
If you haven't already signed up for free membership in the All Dan Network…errr… I mean the Emerging Writer’s Network, what, in the name of Dan, are you waiting for?
Not cooler, just different. I think your blog is waaay cooler than LHB.
