News and Updates:

I have a new piece of flash fiction titled "Almost Christmas" posted at Night Train Magazine, and the piece received a nice write-up on the Emerging Writers Network. I'm humbled for both honors.

My blog is now officially Nate Graziano's Big Baseball Blog. I have reinvented myself as an imaginary sportswriter. Check it out and sign-up to follow it. If you don't, I'll be out of an imaginary job.

Go Sox! Go Bruins! Go Celtics!

Yes. I'm still alive. There just hasn't been a ton going on with the literary life lately, and on top of that, I discovered Facebook and have been wasting an inordinate amount of time on there.

The new book of poetry, however, is coming along, and the Advance Reader's Copies should be printed soon. After the Honeymoon will be published in September by sunnyoutside press, and I will be doing a fairly extensive book tour in October (more details to follow).  

In the meantime, I am fancying myself a sportswriter and blogging on The Red Sox; that is, when I'm not wasting time on Facebook, which has worked out to roughly one blog entry per month. But if more people decide to follow my blog (hint, hint) and give me the attention I so desparately crave, I'll probably write more. Is that a threat?

Go Sox!

It just occurred to me that my "updates" were going back two years. There seems to be something oxymoronic about that, huh? And, someday, I'll look up the word "oxymoron" and know what it means.

So it's time to start afresh. These days, most of my news, retarded ideas and theories, and, of course, "updates" are done via my blog that no one reads. It's linked in the upper-righthand corner of this webpage. See it? But I am still posting my readings and book information here.

Speaking of which, I have a new book of poetry titled After the Honeymoon coming out with sunnyoutside press in September. It picks up were Honey, I'm Home left off, entertaining the themes of marriage, parenthood, addiction, and general existential malaise in the modern world. It's not experimental, or flashy, or tricky. They're poems from the heart, the gut, and the legs. I'm very excited about it and will be doing a book tour next fall to promote it. Obviously, more information will follow.

In the meantime, I invite you to check out my blog, leave a comment, and make me feel less alone in the universe by communicating with me virtually on the web.
