and on the first page there, on the site, you see one poem about the quantum paper wad theory, as a teaser toward the chapbook itself. Phooey. I get spam comments on my blog posts all the time, have to go in and delete them. Unfortunately, I deleted all the comments by mistake. So, I just closed comments, for now anyway.

Nightingale Trapped in Urn: "No Comment," says Keats
is highly recommended for you to read. The piece aspires to music and employs a musical toolset – in the mode of jazz, or a fugue – in that a limited set of themes are returned to over and over, building on themselves through repetitions that are successively altered in creative or unexpected ways (even mischievously including a section that is actually a stanza!), yet all driving toward the same end and reaching a definitive conclusion. This allows the reader (or listener) to access a degree of mystical or trance-like consciousness during his or her experience of the text. C °C by Marc Nash is now published in the second issue of Exclusive Magazine.
As always, scroll down to the bottom of the page to see the piece, and author's commentary on the experimental nature of the work. Exclusive Magazine presents examples of methods of innovation, with a look inside the reasons behind them. Look out for the big C (Cancer) in a progression of C related events. . . . You can read the interview HERE. I'd be curious to hear your comments about it, and you don't need to log in to do so, so jump in and get a dialog going if you like, on HTML GIANT.
Tamera Sellman of Writing Rainbow interviewed me. We go in depth with my life, classes, what Experimental Literature is, and Lucid Fiction.
The Fabulist, which has more regular online issues, now has its second print issue. My story is in that. Their site keeps you up to date on where you may see them in person in the Bay Area. You can order the Fabulist for 10 dollars, and it has wild art too!
As you may know I instigated a genre called Lucid Fiction and many wonderful writers have taken an interest in this, as well as editors. Jennifer Bowles, of Medulla Review, is a kindred spirit, and decided she wanted to devote an issue of her magazine to Lucid Fiction, as well as prosetry. And she asked me to co-edit it. So, the new issue is out, for you to enjoy.
And in it is a call for new work for the upcoming issue. I described what Lucid FIction is on the home page and the submissions page and also there is a list of links of some of the articles and interviews on the subject. This is exciting to me, taking this visionary genre of consciousness exploration and social change, breaking new literary ground, to a new level. |
