Got the following email from Jed Hartman, a fiction editor at Strange Horizons, today: Hi, Doug -- just wanted to let you know that Rich Horton continues to like your work. :) In the latest Locus, he says, among other things: Several recent Strange Horizons stories impressed me... And best of all is Douglas Lain's "Shopping at the End of the World", in which a shredder has effects far beyond simply shredding paper. It's both a wacky working out of a wild idea,and a sharp critique of consumerist culture. And he lists it in "Recommended Stories" -- the only SH story to be listed there this month. Nice work! --jed So I went to Jed's Journal and found a link to the following quiz on Postmodernism. Turns out that I'm a: You are a Grassroots Activist. Anti-capitalist, anti-patrist, anti-authoritarian, whatever, you're just fuckin' anti. You probably tell people you hate postmodernism, but that assertion elides the complex interdependencies among academic poststructuralism and street- level activism. You don't bathe regularly, and know at least one person who has scabbies. What kind of postmodernist are you!? brought to you by Quizilla Read/Post Comments (3) Previous Entry :: Next Entry Back to Top |
