Nice Things Said Re: EWN

  • "Dan Wickett is serious about a good read. But the EWN email list doesn't just deliver his sure-footed reviews; it also brings you news and connections to other writers. Sign up now - he understands what readers want to know about books." Quinn Dalton, author, Bulletproof Girl

    "Mr. Wickett is that rarely heard from but best of all possible reviewers - the dedicated and knowledgeable fan. He writes clean-cutting and fresh reviews that represent a sensibility unspoiled by over-exposure to the biz of books, but deeply in love with them." Daniel Woodrell, author, Winter's Bone

    "Dan Wickett is a reader's best friend. Not only does he read and trenchantly review new work, but he looks back to books that deserve ongoing readership. I've lost track of the number of times he's led me to boks that I overlooked (or never knew about), and that were a delight. There aren't many reviewers I will let shape my library, but Dan Wickett is one." Erin McGraw, author, The Baby Tree

    Source of Lit - Best of the Web 2008

    Per the Dzanc Books blog:

    As the Best of the Web series celebrates online publishing, we thought an online invasion of information was necessary and found many literary bloggers that felt the same way we did.  The following links are mainly to guest posts from authors whose work is included in Best of the Web 2008.9780979312342_2

    You can now hear five of the authors reading the works that they have included in Best of the Web 2008 at the new Dzanc multimedia page!

    Large Hearted Boy has a Book Notes up dedicated to the anthology!

    The Elegant Variation has a series of posts up from Zachary Amendt.

    Okey Ndibe writes about his essay over at the Visiting Hours blog.

    Matt Bell has a post up from Ron Tanner.

    New Hampshire's The Mumpsimus has a series of posts (combined into one) from Myfanwy Collins.

    The Written Nerd was kind enough to come out of an August blogging hiatus to post writing from Sarah Sweeney!

    Writing from Benjamin Buchholz can be found both at LitKicks and the Emerging Writers Network.

    Maine's own Condalmo has an essay from Maine's own Jacques Rancourt.

    Robin Behn's essay about her BotW essay can be found at Syntax of Things.

    Fernham has the first of a trio of posts from Michael Bahler up already - keep checking throughout the afternoon for the other two!

    Some other sites to look to later in the day include Seth Harwood's blog, Powells.com's blog, Critical Mass, and No One Does That, as they all also have posts at the ready.

    Update:  Edward Byrne, who has a great poem in the anthology, writes about the anthology in general, while happily noting that two other poems originally hailed from the Valparaiso Poetry Review.

    And, the aforementioned post for No One Does That?  It's now up, and it's from Mike Wood.
