I have determined to keep this blog running. I am out of a job, and trying to get a few other computer projects up that may generate income: twincitiesjazzscene.com and badboywriters.com. They are described to the right. Please visit them.
On this blog I will discontinue the jazz, because that is up at the twincitiesjazz website, and focus on three areas: 1) Nathaniel Mackey, 2) Interviews with writers who interest me, and 3) comments on works that I happen upon that pique my interest enough to write on them. Also, I encourage submissions from others.

This is a blog of reviews, interviews, & commentary on writing that takes risks. Unsolicited work welcome. I am most interested not in evaluative pieces, but in creative pieces that explore what the reviewer learned from reading the book. Unsigned commentary is by the editor.

BLOG HAS MOVED
This blog has moved to thealteredscale.blogspot.com. Please make a note, and I look forward to seeing you there.

Gently Read Literature is an internet journal that hopes to actually be of some use. How? By creating a forum for genuine criticism and analysis of contemporary literature, specifically contemporary poetry and the contemporary novel. There are too few outlets that take the time to scrutinize literature, to explain how and why we value poetry and novels the way we do. We need to know the reasons why there are good angels and bad angels.
