This is from the book, and one of the poems The New Yorker ran on their blog.

Well, we’re almost there. After almost two years, Newspaper Blackout is out tomorrow. I woke up early this morning, feeling like a kid on Christmas Eve.

A few folks have told me that Amazon has shipped their books, although there’s still one day left to pre-order and enter the screenprint giveaway.

I’m excited. Book release party at Bookpeople here in Austin tomorrow night at 7PM!

Another poem from the book! Folks told me they enjoyed the autobiography in the post on yesterday’s poem, so here’s some more for you:

If there’s one thing I hate, it’s mowing the lawn.

Nuff sed.

Big thanks to Kim Jones and The Austin Chronicle: I was greeted in my cubicle this morning with this nice interview.
