I’ve been neglecting this space in recent months, so I’m behind on posting about the Dead Man pieces RIC has published.

On ‘A Personal History of Attention’
My piece with Michelle Lynn Dyrness, ‘A Personal History of Attention’, has been published in Vol. 1 No. 3 of Firmament, Sublunary Editions’ print journal. Michelle did the images, I did the words.
