  1. RT @skylightbooks: .@electriclit experiment may show us what platforms are good for net publishing. Trad pubs? Lit mags? Bkstores? Authors?
  2. @oblongirl "microserialization" experiment with story by Rick Moody.
  3. @kashbk We've stopped already!
  4. @IndieRob I know, I know.
  5. @e_lana Agree about the hash tag or other identifier.
  6. @phylschuster The tweets today were part of an experiment by Rick Moody. We gave it a day--didn't really work for us.
  7. .@marnieGH Thanks. I think there were a few issues that weren't anticipated (follower overlap) that became huge. Still interesting.
  8. Alright...I've asked @electriclit to take us off the Rick Moody experiment. It's still up at @vromans, @breathebooks....
  9. This concludes today's transmission of Rick Moody's "Some Contemporary Characters." The story continues tomorrow at 10 AM...
  10. I’d never been to Coney Island, because I dislike crowds, though I had been writing notes about the Russian mob, existentialism thereof.
  11. Coney Island was open one more weekend, and it was getting cooler, and I had this halter top I really liked. Cream-colored.
  12. Enough! Enough blather! Enough neurotic vacillation! Enough middle-aged hand-wringing! For whatever reason she seems to like you! Enough!
  13. He’s assuming that I get all my information from the iPhone or from the Interwebs. But I also get my info from bar patrons.
  14. Note to self at dawn: S. Spielrein recognized the destructive essence of longing, an idea she passed on, like an STD, to Freud and Jung.
  15. My mother is two years older than he is, same age practically. She’s already telling me which jewelry is mine when she dies.
  16. She IM’d me on FB to tell me that her mother had summoned her home for the weekend, she had to go. I thought: met a kid her own age.
  17. He called me because, he said, phoning after a date was required. Land lines—so Tracy & Hepburn. I thought: letting me down easy.
  18. Up around 4AM sorting and recycling back issues of The Nation. A bit more age appropriate than smooching some barmaid?
  19. Actually, I did text on the way home and mainly because I knew my roommate was going to get up in my face: Did he kiss old?
  20. Her eyes drifted off. I could see her preparing something witty: “I can’t quxhyte reeeaad keybrd cuz my yongue is in somnody’s mout.”
