Working six days a week while packing for a move is not helping me be a good blogger. AT ALL. It is, however, helping me be an excellent complainer...as evidenced by the series of texts I sent to Catherine last night. Welcome, April.

I was going to talk about some essential short stories, starting with the menace-laden masterpiece that is Joyce Carol Oates' "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?", but that's definitely not happening. Maybe tomorrow afternoon...maybe not. We'll see how things progress. In the meantime, you should pick up her massive brick of selected stories: High Lonesome. It's a dream and a scream.
