Membership

I am a member of Ecstatic Monkey and a Floundering Skeptician of the Flat Earth Collective.

Writers

Some writers I know and admire:

• Saskia Vogel's Lessons from the House of Sin: Writing the Book on Love, Kink, Sex, and Getting What You Want.
• Antonio G. Fernandez and his poetry collection, From Nowhere to Nothing.
• Limrack from my friend Eric Platt (a.k.a. Limrack Jack of Nantucket), a fantastic word puzzle he's invented where you solve to complete a limerick.

Publishers & magazines

These are publishers I am associated with, have worked with, or simply respect for their vision:

• Dublit.com
• Instant City
• The Loin's Mouth, the official zine of San Francisco's Tenderloin.
• Parthenon West Review
• Small Desk Press
• Transfer
• Watchword Press

Construction

I constructed this web site using the following tools:

• htp - An HTML pre-processor I programmed a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
• TextWrangler - All the HTML and htp templates are hand-coded using this solid and reliable text editor.
• Apache - I test this site on their server software prior to uploading it to barbecuingpeople.com.
• Fetch - A Mac FTP client which synchronizes my local files and the server's with nary a complaint.
