I've been on and off for the past month or so, but I've got an excuse. A few of them, in fact. 1) I'm editing and contributing to a local zine. Or on the plain ol' world wide web. 2) I'm in two bands, both of which are in the process of recording albums. My main project in which I play guitar and do vocals, Legal Fingers. We Can&...

Tunneling to the Center of the Earth: October 2010
http://wilsonkevin.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Tunneling to the Center of the Earth. Tuesday, October 12, 2010. I realize now I dragged this out way too long, but here is the cover of the novel. Allison Saltzman. Who also designed the cover for Tunneling to the Center of the Earth. Did the cover design, and the art is by Julie Morstad. I have been a fan of Morstad's work, mostly because of the two children's books she's illustrated, When You Were Small. Where You Came From. Here's a description of the book, which I did not write:. I'm also going to b...

Tunneling to the Center of the Earth: June 2011
http://wilsonkevin.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Tunneling to the Center of the Earth. Tuesday, June 28, 2011. I was in New Orleans for less than 24 hours this past weekend for the American Library Association Conference. I was on a panel for Southern Literature. I'm going to write more about the panel, but the best part of the trip was the airplane ride back to Nashville, where I sat across the aisle from the country music singer Rodney Crowell. He was reading Richard Russo's Empire Falls. I did not bother him. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Tunneling to...

http://wilsonkevin.blogspot.com/2011/05/zine-scene.html
Tunneling to the Center of the Earth. Monday, May 16, 2011. At AWP, I talked to Richard Mocarski, who runs an excellent literary website called Zine-Scene. Thanks to Adam for letting me mess around with his work and thanks to Richard for pushing me in this direction. That was a really cool idea, and I liked reading the two stories side by side. Thanks for posting this, Kevin! May 20, 2011 at 5:24 PM. Thanks for reading them, Juliana. May 21, 2011 at 7:29 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Housewarmi...

Tunneling to the Center of the Earth. Monday, August 30, 2010. Been a Long Time. I haven't written in a long time. My 9 to 5 job is as the secretary of the Sewanee Writers' Conference. Things get crazy once the summer arrives. I stop sleeping. I get agitated at the slightest thing. I don't update my blog. But I'm clear of it for a little while and back to getting other work done. I had some good news:. 1) I was the co-winner of the Shirley Jackson Award. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Emerging Writers Netwo...

Tunneling to the Center of the Earth: April 2010
http://wilsonkevin.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tunneling to the Center of the Earth. Thursday, April 29, 2010. I Stole A Line from Suzanne Vega. I have this story in Hobart called " My Hand, Dead Tissue, Severed at the Wrist. There's a line in there that reads, ". I bloodied a nose and kicked one girl so hard in the gut that she made a sound like two babies had fallen out of her." I had been thinking about this line, having read it somewhere as a teenager, for many, many years, just waiting for the chance to use it. The one exception was the fight wi...

Tunneling to the Center of the Earth. Friday, August 12, 2011. The reading was a blast. Jake, the owner, was incredibly kind and really enthusiastic about the book. A good group of people came. I got to see my friend, the poet Adam Vines. We had just spent the last two weeks on staff at the Sewanee Writers' Conference, so I was touched that he came to the reading. Also, one of my favorite writer friends, Kerry Madden. Wednesday, August 10, 2011. Book Tour (Chattanooga and Atlanta). Pig Week, 2008". Expla...
