Caleb began writing his sophomore year of undergrad study when, tired of the formal art education then being taught, he abandoned the pursuit in the middle of a compositional drawing class. Major-less and fearful of losing his financial aid, he signed up to seek a degree in English Literature for no other reason than his lengthy history with the language. Coincidentally, this decision not only introduced him to writing but to reading as well. Prior this transition he had read three books. One of which he understood.

I'm touched and honored. 810 seems like a big number. It makes me wish I had 806 more copies to give away. Thank you to everyone who has entered. There's still a couple more hours to try for a copy. Of course, there is always buying a copy, too. Goodreads Book Giveaway Stranger Will by Caleb J. Ross Giveaway ends April 25, 2011. See the giveaway details at Goodreads. Enter to win

I would normally hold off on announcing a publication until the publication in question has been, well, published. But Warmed and Bound is different. Warmed and Bound is a story collection many, many years in the making. Honestly, since the start of The Velvet forums, the idea of a collected story collection has been tossed around. And finally, with talent figuratively forcing apart the forum seams, it's about time the group warmth is bound for all to read. What makes this collection especially amazing is not only the number of stories included, but the degree of talent to be contained within. This table of contents features some of the greatest writers going right now, honestly. I truly consider my small contribution to this thing a very, very high point of my short career. Seriously, look at this Table of Contents. This is for real, people. I'm excited to be bound…
Today, at BL Pawelek’s blog I write about the overlap of visual arts concepts and creative writing concepts. This post is all a call to action for anyone with additional insight into the overlap to post in the blog comments. I am trying to gather some resources for a possible larger project for the future..
