Shya Scanlon and elimae want you!

tesla-ins1

From the elimae announcements page:

Shya Scanlon is organizing a marathon reading of elimae contributors in NYC. Each reader will perform one or two short pieces, totaling no more than 3 minutes. If you live in the area and would like to participate, contact him at shya(dot)scanlon (at)gmail(dot)com.

Shya, a buddy of mine and a buddy to literature, is a nearly absolute good. Elimae is an absolute good. Be a part of this.

Do it.

FROM SHYA:

“No bios, no introductions, just a continual series of readers reading really brief pieces. It’s going to be like streaming elimae content, live and in the flesh.”

Unrelated announcement:

I would like to revive the long-suppressed* Giant Blind Items feature. This is the definition of a “blind item.”

You can send blind items to giantblinditems at gmail dot com.

* suppressed by me because I think it is a really, really bad idea.

      Thanks, Matthew. I’ll just add that it’s first come first serve. I’m not “curating” in any traditional way. Everyone who has been published on elimae merits inclusion; the only constraint will be temporal.

      And by “temporal constraints” you mean everyone will be allowed access to your time machine, but not allowed to, say, kill their own grandfathers and cause some sort of temporal paradox, yes?

      Frankly, all that is negotiable.
