¿LE GUSTA ESTE JARDIN QUE ES SUYO?
When I was in Cuba last month, I got word that my grandfather was dying. He lived in Havana in the ’50s, and his heart never really left. I wrote an essay about him, about Cuba, and about the man pictured in the statue above for Cartel Magazine. I’m proud of it. You’ve got to subscribe to get Cartel, but it’s worth doing so. There’s good stuff in there.

The Pete and Ted Show: The Pete and Ted Show, episode two

Here we go, episode two. This one is slightly different, in that it features editing because we talked for about 90 minutes, and chopped it down to about half that. Hope you enjoy it.

For the first time in about two years, I published some fiction today over at Hobart. The story is about an umpire. It’s pretty short. I hope you check it out.
