One of the things I was referring to in my last post was my new recurring feature, “Field Notes of an American WASP,” which is live on Knee-Jerk Magazine! Go check it out!

I’m super, super excited about this. It’s been in the works for about a year now, and it’s been such a pleasure to work with Casey Bye, one of Knee-Jerk’s superb editors. I started following Knee-Jerk with their first print issue, back in early 2011, when my friend Marla dragged me to their booth at AWP to show me the cool new thing she’d found. Since then, I’ve kept up on the print journal and the website for regular hits of some of the best writing around. It’s an honor to be part of the Knee-Jerk crew, and I hope I can continue to earn my place.
