Illustration from the notebooks of Matt Madden, coming from Geoffrey Gatza's BlazeVox.

I'm officially getting excited now.

Desert Island Discs: The College of Saint Rose edition.

After one meeting, my popular culture writing class blog is all abuzz with my students posting their Desert Island Discs.

Remember the DIDs? It makes me miss the old Tower Pulse! magazine, in which readers and artists would name their top 10 CDs/albums they would bring to a desert island. Anway, check them out. Mine's in there, too.

Danny's first vlog entry.

It's primitive, but a start. Click here to open a short .AVI video file. I'm testing this technology out for one of my class's blogs. This is a pan-and-scan from my chair in my office. That's Sugar Hill Gang in the background.

I actually have an About page.

It's here, and you can only get to it from my underlined name on the front page. But it's there. I guess it will be some kind of press link. I liked writing my informal, ridiculously choppy bio, and giving (and asking for) credit regarding some of the people who've taken good pictures of me over the years. Especially the extremely talented Jessica Raridon, whose pictures of other authors you can see turning up in glossies recently.
