beau mot plage is live
beau mot plage, you’ll find, is a little easier than park, ha ha. The San Francisco Bay Guardian has a piece by Jason Shamai on three novellas for a novel (he calls it a “brainy horror experiment") sort of in response to Jonathan Karp of the Washington Post’s piece on the future of publishing.
The Bay Guardian piece on three novellas is here and the original Washington Post article is here.
More good news is that from July 29 till October 4 this year I’ll be back in Japan courtesy of the Japan Foundation as the TWS (Tokyo Wonder Site, I shit you not) creator in residence. I’ll be researching and writing and you know just having a lot of fun.
What’s not in the actual text of the novellas is that I’d like to dedicate this all to Anna Smaill, to Ryan Skelton, and to director, inspiration, charmer and friend CS Leigh. Thanks to Michael FitzGerald and Jun Onuki for all their help and support, and thanks and love to you, the fit though few.
