The print run sold out long ago, but I’ve been thinking of writing some stories for Jane. She came up in discussion and I remembered that we had made a digital version for printing, so there’s no reason it couldn’t be sold as an ebook. I could go through all the palaver of putting up…

Voyage to Connecticut
I met the fabulous Queen of Everything for breakfast at Cafémantic in Willimantic. Quite lovely — never had been there before; it was delightful. Then we headed over to WECS to heckle Marko throughout the Punk Rock Jukebox — I mean, to help promote the Salacious Art show that features some of the QoE’s fine…
Friday’s Forgotten Books: Between the Angels and the Apes
Not so much “forgotten” as — what? Aborted? Headed off at the pass? The initial news was wonderful: Alan Moore writing an opera on John Dee with Gorillaz! What’s not to love? It sounded like a match made in an alchemical lab somewhere with the potential of turning into gold. There was just one problem:…
Jane Quiet in Egypt
Wow, Elena is really drawing some lovely panels. The digital colors look so vivid and striking! And hey, what do you think all those cats are doing around the temple…? 😉 See all the new panels in Jane’s Egyptian adventure at the webjam.

BitchBuzz: Technology and Temperance + Jane Quiet
My column today springs from my annoyance with paternalistic colleagues who keep giving people the impression that academics are stuffy know-it-alls who pontificate from their position of privilege. I realise I can also be a bit unreasonable about it: on President’s Day a colleague in the midst of his “technology: bad” talk (thank goodness there…
Jane Quiet RETURNS!
Go to our web jam now for the news! Whoo hoo — I can’t tell you how happy this makes me 🙂
Happy Yule, Jane Quiet, Elena & Providence
The solstice is upon us and it pays to remember that the longest night also means it’s time for the return of the light. Here’s my perennial offering on Anglo-Saxon Yule that ended up online without my putting it there. At least they credited me as author. I’ve got another piece up at Polite Company…
Happy St. Nick’s Day
Or did you get the Krampus instead? Well, my lovely Krampus chapbook designed by The joey Zone is out of print, but you can hear me read it as a podcast. I hope to scan it and get an electronic version available soon, but things are just so hectic (when is that not true?). I…
