Marcy Dermansky

Hi Marcy - Thanks so much for reading & commenting on "Telling" - you know I liked the hard pause of the period instead of hypen but rereading it, I see what you mean. Also, and this always happens, I always notice little mistakes in my writing - a missing apostrophe in this case. I'm a lazy proofreader :)

Thank you for your kind words about "Clean." I appreciate them very much...

It was great to meet you, Marcy!

Marcy! I loved your story Halloween when it first appeared in KNOCK. My very first story Song of the Needle was in that issue (but i have better stories coming out in Narrative and Tampa Review--i think anyway). I flew out to see Johnathan Evison and met Ben Loory. Also, i think you went to school with a good friend of mine, Peter Theis...

Marcy! So great to read that excerpt of Bad Marie just now. I'm supposed to be translating and editing, but that was so very worth tearing myself away from work... thanks for posting it, and I'll look for the NZ edition!! (or find it online - I'm resourceful that way!)

Thanks for the welcome, Marcy! I am still figuring this site out, but having fun!

Marcy, thanks so much for your note. I loved reading Little Meadow Simms again! It was one of my favorite pieces we published in PIF. It's exciting to see all the cool stuff you've done - congratulations! This is a great site...I'm getting my act together to update my profile and post something. And I can't wait to read your novel.

Marcy, due to Gary's poem about Facebook, I went on a little mission to read your work today and found sample chapters of Twins and read the first one about getting the tattoos. I'm wild about your writing! Thanks.

readin twins--that first page---wow

recommending it at the party--

Thank you for your comment (and favoriting) on The Tracing Game. It's a good boost to the confidence.

Happy birthday, yesturday.

Thanks for letting me borrow your husband.

I'll get him back in one piece.

In response to comment #2: The woman is smarter than my review.

late to the party but had to comment on "Perfect". One of the best stories I've read. The ending is just so so wonderful.

Ha ha ha. Just read Jurgen's April 28 post. Real world and virtual worlds collide.

But seriously, I loved Twins so much, am really excited about reading the new book.

Thanks for Herzog warning, Marcy! It's on my Netflix cue so I should get it soon... NBC news reporter Peter Alexander did a story on my ship, the CCGS Amundsen, for the Today show last Friday. OK.... That's enough product placement for today!

Hi Marcy.

See, Marcy? I'm participating. I'm putting up new excerpts every week. I'll either bore everyone to death or build a fan base, right?

I'm being a good little girl and posting new stuff. Soon I'll post stuff you actually haven't read before.

I'll look for your novel! As for Bernheimer, I recommend starting with The Complete Tales of Ketzia Gold. It's amazing. Ketzia is unforgettable. The novel's so small, but I've read 300-page novels in less time; it's just so jam-packed with language-y goodness.

Hey Marcy--snowman lit might just be the next big thing. You never know. Thanks for the reading tip.

Thanks for your first writing on my brand new wall, Marcy. This virtual community of writers feels so real-- it's great! Haven't seen Herzog movie, wants to since I'm putting together a film class about the idea of North-- any other suggestions?

Marcy wins for most contacts. So popular!

Whoa! Lots of Dermanskys here (Or is Dermanskies the plural of Dermansky????) Are they all your peeps? You know I loved Twins...you must have one mighty talented family.

gee, we coulda met in NYC at the Oyster Bay? Maybe we can try again. Oysters and me are always waiting for company.

Did it! Posted! Be the first to read these never before seen pages.
