I do most of my writing while riding the subway. An excerpt from my second novel, One Year After the Death of Leonardo, was published in Monkeybicycle 6. I self-published a novel, Three Thirds, in 2002. I've written about music and dance for Junkmedia, The L Magazine, Crawdaddy! and Dance Teacher.
I really don't know why. Probably because it's a nice quiet thing to do with yourself that isn't too bad for you.
Most recently Carson McCullers and Heinrich Boll. I loved 'The Ballad of the Sad Cafe,' 'Reflections in a Golden Eye,' and 'Billiards at Half-Past Nine.' I think I will always check in with Henry Miller. Also Hermann Hesse. I like Douglas Coupland a lot, too. Also forgot to mention - Barry Gifford. His novel 'Wyoming' amazed me.
Good to see you on here, Joe!
