Riffing on Strings: Creative Writing Inspired by String Theory (Scriblerus Press), which contains my story "Arachne," has won an IPPY Silver Medal. Details at bit.ly/BjqdR.

"Arachne" originally appeared in the Dec. 1988 issue of Aboriginal Science Fiction. Writing it was a fabulous ride that I blogged about here:

  • Congrats!

    My friend has a literary magazine. They did this one issue all on the Coney Island amusement park in NYC. It won a national award. It was such a great combination of photographic art and interesting writing on that one theme.

    I love it when it all comes together like that...

    you know, like a haiku...the magazine itself just becomes this integrally perfect little moment.
    • Thanks, Jon!
      I grew up in Brooklyn, so Coney Island was like a home away from home when I was a kid. My high school was one subway stop away.
      For me, the first day of summer was the day I could look out the train window and see the Wonder Wheel turning again.

      Congratulations to your friend, too! What lit mag is it?
