Eat When You Feel Sad by Zachary German
Zac German is a spectacularly talented writer who has been posting sporadically on this blog since almost the very beginning of its existence. He had a work in the 'Userlands' anthology of fiction by writers associated with this blog that I edited for my Litle House on the Bowery Imprint. A short novella by Zac has been published free online through the wonderful venture Bear Parade run by the writers Tao Lin and Noah Cicero. If you haven't read Zac's novella, it's just great, and I recommend incredibly highly that you head over there and do so asap.

Ah, Dennis, thanks for putting the link to my blog on here. Very kind of you. I've had a strange day. This made me light up though. Not as much as reading Tony's post about you and Harper: that made me smile from ear to fucking ear, man. You deserve it, you fucking deserve it. You were right about 2008 being a good year, yeah? Hehe. Just awesome news, man. I hope Jerk went well tonight. I'm eager to see it. If it does hit Birmingham (20 minutes from me) then I know a couple of veggie restaurants we could grab some food from if you fancy.
I need sleep.
Love
Thomas
