In the past month, I’ve posted not one — not two — but three posts about people reading my chapbook, Box Cutters. And the photos of happy readers keep coming! As of today, it might be a bit of a squeeze to get your copy of my book by Christmas (unless you order from Amazon and have it airlifted by drone), but you should be able to just make, if you want to join these fine folks:




That’s right, folks: When I sent a copy of Box Cutters to my sister and her husband, my 12-year-old nephew insisted on reading it, too:
And before you think this is a posed photo . . . my nephew really is this cool. Okay, he probably added the shades for effect. But otherwise, yeah, this is him on a daily basis. But here’s the funny bit: as I looked at the photo, I realized I owned almost exactly this same outfit. The striped sweater, the black hat . . . .
So you know what I had to do next.

Have you considered giving Box Cutters as a gift? You can still order the book in time for Christmas! I’d love to see photos of people giving or receiving the book!
If they ever decide to do a remake of ‘Blues Brothers 2000’ we’ll let you know.
