What Men Want: a new book of poetry
Friend, fellow Bread Loafer, and Guernica author Laura McCullough has a new book of poetry, WHAT MEN WANT. I’ll just let the flap copy say it, because it says it pretty well: Laura’s poems “traverse the divide between the body … Continue reading
Reposting: 2007 Bread Loaf waiters are doing a reading
It’s called the “Orphan Reading” because, well, it’s a long story. Anyway, many of the 2007 work-study scholars, writers who received a “waitership” from Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference, are having a reading during AWP, the big writers’ conference, convention, and … Continue reading

I’d hoped to blog a bit from Bread Loaf. I’d hoped to document the “waitership” experience. I’ve been been given this once-in-a-lifetime scholarship, and I wanted to document it, minute by minute. No go. There’s just too much is going … Continue reading
Waiting tables at Bread Loaf, 2007
It just doesn’t have a ring to it–hey, I’m going to Bread Loaf! I’m going to be a waiter! Usual Response: Uh, cool. You’re waiting tables at a bakery? Me: That’s the name of the mountain! It’s a writers’ conference! … Continue reading
The background blah-blah
I’m a writer. But: I’ve erased everything that was here because I found it so appalling. I’ve never kept a diary (on a regular basis, that is) for the same reason. I have had just about all I can take … Continue reading
