I wrote this silly thing for Miranda July's art project Learning To Love You More. www.learningtoloveyoumore.com is the site where she posts random assignments like "Draw a picture of a friend's friend" and the general public does just that. Then, sometimes there are exhibitions of the public's work. Soon, there is going to be a book.
I completed assignment #60: Write a press release about an everyday event.
Then as per the detailed instructions, I sent my press release to three respectable news organizations.
You can read it here. On the top right.
Miranda July has a new book of stories out as well. It's called No One Belongs Here More Than You and the first third has been good to me so far.
Chuck Palahniuk's new book Rant was great in that I expect his books to be batshit crazy now from the get-go. It did not stray anywhere far from being batshit crazy, that's for sure. In fact, I think it's his most batshit crazy book to date. I mean this with love.
