SIGNIFICANT, OR SIGN-IF-I-CANT?

Good news for the soon-to-be-released issue: The bigger shots have noticed the talents of our contributors. Particularly the frumpy tastemakers at the Gotham lit desk. Yesterday's New York Times Review of Books included discourses on the merits of the new Wells Tower story collection Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned, as well as Jeff Rotter's new novel The Unknown Knowns. And just a few weeks ago, they ran a nice little review of Patrick deWitt's painfully hilarious novel Ablutions. Of course the timing is a total mother-smoking coincidence, given I've been sitting on these stories for years in some cases, but one that this editor will gladly accept. And for the record, Jeff has been a long time contributor but sadly is not in the new issue, while these other chaps are. If you want to see the full roster of subversives, click on the release date on our webpage and you'll get the entire body count.
