You are currently browsing the tag archive for the ‘National Train Day’ tag.

Along with links to some reviews I’ve written, the trusty sidebar has a few other goodies to check out. First you’ll see “Some Other Blogs.” Currently this list includes the blog-projects of some close friends and compatriots of various persuasions. This list will expand as I get time, but for now, check out everything from food, to flag football, to BEXOnymous Rex.
Two other fledgling sections you’ll see are “Some Presses,” and “Some Zines.” In the first category, you’ll find four independent presses run by friends and associates; as mentioned before, Blue Hour Press is open for chapbook submissions, as is Slash Pine Press! (PS, hot news: BHP just released a new digital chapbook today by Alexis Orgera, go check it out!) Now, in the realm of zines, you’ll find three journals, all of which I’ve been associated with in one form or another: The Black Warrior Review, Dislocate, and Zoland Poetry. Again, both of these sections will expand as time allows, but for now, I want to give credit to these friends and colleagues.
In unrelated news, May 9th is NATIONAL TRAIN DAY in the States. Get out there and ride a train, folks. I’m not asking you to support Amtrak, exactly, but affordable, sustainable mass transit in the USA. Just imagine if we had a TGV in America!

ps. Thanks to Nik DeDominic for the info on NTD.
