››› “Dickinson’s Epistolary ‘Naturalness’” and “Stein, Riding and The Space of Letters” are available at Project Muse, the former in The Emily Dickinson Journal (14.1) and the latter in the Journal of Modern Literature (29.4). An article on Marianne Moore’s correspondence with George Saintsbury during her Dial years is forthcoming in Textual Cultures. Material for the latter two articles comes from the American literature collection at the Beinecke Library and the Marianne Moore collection at the Rosenbach Museum. I am currently preparing a critical edition of Stein’s 1941 novel Ida for Yale University Press. More writing . . . a National Poetry Foundation collection on Ronald Johnson includes an article of mine. Some shorter pieces are on Gertrude Stein, Laura Riding, Charles Bernstein, Susan Howe, Jen Bervin, Women Poets, Australian poets, Closure, Juliana Spahr’s Everybody’s Autonomy, Graham Foust’s As In Every Deafness, Thomas Gardner’s A Door Ajar, and Ulla Dydo’s The Language That Rises. I have also published a couple of poetry chapbooks, one out from Phylum Press and the other available here. Both were written in collaboration with the artwork of Lara Odell; for an exhibition of her work I wrote the catalogue introduction. (The drawing here is hers.) As well, I co-edit an advice column with Lara, have made t-shirts, and appreciate (?) censorship. ‹‹‹
