About Me
-
Describe Yourself:It's a simple story. Too many years of graduate school, a few teaching college-level English, and here we are. I've always wanted to write, and at the moment I'm practicing, learning and enjoying the creative process.
-
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:I'm interested in meeting like-minded writers for mutual support and critique. I'd also like to self-publish my fiction, poetry and essays.
"Why do
You thus devise
Evil against her?" "For that
She is beautiful, delicate;
Therefore."
--- "Susanna and the Elders," Adelaide Crapsey
My author bio: James Ciriaco has not published a goddamned thing. Anywhere, ever. If he moves five copies of his book, then he'll have done better than Longfellow this year. Suck on it, Longfellow!

Adrian Eve Revenaugh, Nov 2, 2009, 2:03AM ESTFound your noir image question In The Doon. That's my Hannah Rose a week or so ago playing with her gal pal and a camera on campus. They did a whole series. Fun!
I miss all of us! Dissipation!

Adrian Eve Revenaugh, Oct 28, 2009, 1:46PM EDTThe Parr/Ciriaco read aloud was amidst a small wealth of lit-erota shared with m'darling, a stalwart of many campaigns. A welcome home evening, comfy and warm with just the right flair befitting old ones.
Our thanks your directions. -
Adrian Eve Revenaugh, Oct 28, 2009, 1:59AM EDTHello neighbor. Trying to enjoy more of the home front than one person should be entitled to. Thinking of all here but sticking close to Circus tasks & personal writing.
Then it's offline/outdoors! Enjoyed a James & Corinna read aloud here.
Smashing success.
