Fly news: Douglas Kearney’s second manuscript, The Black Automaton, was selected for the National Poetry Series and will be published by Fence Books in 2009.
Nice!
For all you NYCers, Doug will be the featured poet this Monday at the louderARTS Reading Series’ Open Slam night. This should be a real interesting mix of open mic goodness, Doug’s awesome work, and some interesting slam poetry (especially considering that winning the louderARTS Slam this season gets you one step closer to a writing fellowship).
Dope! So well-deserved. Kearney is so good. NPS is winning points with me this year.
