Best of the Web 2008 Invades the Internet

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.

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.

I wrote an informal review of BotW'08, which can be found here:

I'd been meaning to write it for a while.

Feel free to list my contribution above and delete this comment, or rather do whatever you feel like doing. :)

The track back didn't work, or else we did it wrong, but you guys rocked the internets yesterday. I ran across BOW everywhere.

Too bad the editors weren't aware of the online magazine 13 Miles from Cleveland www.13milesfromcleveland.com Very good writing exists there. Best wishes, Mary Ellen Derwis
