Well, I tried reading dozens of lit journals and magazines this year Larry Send a noteboard - 27/03/2010 08:23:38 PM
Have you tried anything new this year?

(New can refer to author, genre, style, etc.)

Oh, and a follow-up question: did you enjoy it?


Some very good stories here. Perhaps when the selections are done, I'll go back and comment on excellent stories that were not chosen for BAF 4.

As for novels, read almost 110 so far this year. Wide variety, as usual. Am trying to review 7 books in 7 days for the second consecutive week. Have two reviews to write tonight and I'll be done with that. Then I might do it for 1-2 more weeks, then concentrate fully on BAF 4 again.
