Where the hell I’ve been

Say hello to the debut issue of Hot Metal Bridge! The new literary magazine edited by MFA students at Pitt launches today; I’ve been crouched behind, working to chuck it out into the world.

There’s a brand new story by Michael Martone and an interview with National Book Award nominee Dan Chaon. Neither Bryan Hurt (fiction) nor Molly Fuller (nonfiction) has ever been published before. Alan DeNiro, who in in the LBC mix this spring, sent us a poem from a new series. And these other fine authors: Lee Capps, Maurice Guevara, Janet Butler Holm, Sue Jostrom, RoseMarie London, Sally Pfoutz, Simone Poirier-Bures, Lynn Potts, Abby Sinnott, Morelle Smith and Johnathan Wilber. I love them all equally, as any decent editor should.

I’m awfully excited. Do check it out.

About the author

I like sitting in Jack Webb's booth.
