Narnia Anthology 
Don't get mad at me if there are less entries than you normally see on a blog -- I put a lot into them, that's why they're long and you probably don't read them all the way through

For Your Consideration:

  • Through the Wardrobe
    The Narnia Anthology Through the Wardrobe, with my contribution, is available now in Borders

    Instead of the big-time poster for Prince Caspian, I wanted to show this--

    --I think that's pretty cool. Looked indie, turned out that Disney put it out. But anyway.

    The last time I worked with BenBella books was their World of the Golden Compass anthology--

    World of the Golden Compass

    --and that was quite a success. I am back now for the Narnia anthology. I contributed an essay called "Reading The Right Books," which is 4th in the book, so I'm like "Breed" or "Rape Me," good placement. In conjunction with Through the Wardrobe, BenBella Books set up this website, TeenLibris.com, where they put up an It's Kind of A Funny Story excerpt.

    I would love it if you would get my book and read my essay. It explores how CS Lewis, in Voyage of the Dawn Treader (Can you believe they're going to put out Voyage of the Dawn Treader? That book was fucking incredible!), combined Irish and Celtic myths with Christian imagery. Specifically, the voyages of St. Brendan.

    I'm going to have a giveaway of this book, so stay tuned, but in the meantime, I'm going to see the movie, because I saw the ad for it and just said "holy crap" over and over again and made my friend rewind the DVR.
