Year-end question for those in traditional jobs: Is it common for your performance reviews to be done by someone who has no knowledge of what you do rather than by your actual supervisor?

Wait, you mean the NYTimes didn’t let Jann Wenner edit its interview of him before it was published?

No idea what Drew Barrymore is on about with this “astute humility” nonsense, but I do know what it sounds like when someone is trying to justify crossing a picket line. It’s neither astute nor humble. It’s scabbing. #WGAstrong

Thanks for sharing this review! @StonePacific @UnsolicitedP @mindbuckmedia
stonepacificzine.com/reviews… Twisted and Tasty: On Trevor J. Houser’s The Prumont Method “If a novel can be an animal, Trevor J. Houser’s The Prumont Method is a Sphynx cat: a slick surface, a playful personality, a disquieting body, and a face from a nightmare.” by @RobFromberg

Halfway through the month, and JAKE's about halfway full in his chapbook inbox. Get it in now, before it's too late! oleada.io/publication/jake/j…
Have you got a chapbook manuscript you're looking for a home for? Do you have a bunch of great stories or poems that vibe with each other, but maybe not enough for a whole collection? JAKE's reading chapbooks now! Details here: oleada.io/publication/jake/j…

This is such a good book
On the same day I saw a baby box turtle, which I doubt will happen again, I came home to this thoughtful review from Robert Fromberg, author of How to Walk with Steve, on my turtle cover book, More Animist Babble. Thx @RobFromberg gobpilepress.bigcartel.com/p…

One of the happiest times of the year is the @DrunkMonkeysWeb pop culture issue; they were even kind enough to include something of mine. drunkmonkeys.us/2017-posts/2…

What the hell am I going to do with a 12,000-word essay about the worst writer in the world?

Once my grandmother gave me a plum. I said I liked it. Every time I visited my grandmother for the rest of her life, she had plums for me. This is also how social media algorithms work.
