We are promoting real writers-- like Mr. Fright, whose book is due out any moment.<BR/>I'll be posting soon about ULA poet Frank Walsh-- a better poet and performer than anyone in the lit-establishment.<BR/>At the same time, we can't ignore the lit-world's corruptions.<BR/>Can we?<BR/>Why is everyone ignoring them?<BR/>Doesn't the silence speak volumes?King Wenclashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13709139159194279478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7983462.post-1161514926598768762006-10-22T04:02:00.000-07:002006-10-22T04:02:00.000-07:00because he's at the center of a structure that see...because he's at the center of a structure that seems to have been set up to block access to alternative voices.Jimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18284416001554911018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7983462.post-1161455087580546442006-10-21T11:24:00.000-07:002006-10-21T11:24:00.000-07:00I care about real writing.I read real writing.I go...I care about real writing.<BR/><BR/>I read real writing.<BR/><BR/>I go to real readings.<BR/><BR/>Moody's nothing to me - the question is, why is he so much to you, that you'd rather recount his corruptions for the umpteenth time than promote real writers?jimmy gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12434938879390034763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7983462.post-1161176570580002592006-10-18T06:02:00.000-07:002006-10-18T06:02:00.000-07:00Good one about the airbrushing, King.

No! Much less likely will they be given credit for providing the lifeblood of the only relevant lit movement of the 90's? These writers captivated thousands and influenced and inspired and affected just as many. No MFA writer can say they did this. But they'll grab the stage anyway and ignore the real writers. And do their best to erase them as well. <BR/><BR/>The official cultural accounts of that period will not mention any of the real writers. <BR/><BR/>Does anyone care?<BR/><BR/>Except for us, the ULA?<BR/><BR/>Will anyone but us make noise about it?<BR/><BR/>--JPJeff Potterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03790219160140511776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7983462.post-1161010454484350422006-10-16T07:54:00.000-07:002006-10-16T07:54:00.000-07:00That's an interesting twist!That's an interesting twist!Verbal Responsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11137113214875775759noreply@blogger.com
