Revising my portfolio again, now that this crazy thing has become such a huge confusing mess.  I’m going back to my minimalist ideals and making everything here at JGE as straightforward and inoffensive to the eye as possible — so if you see things start to change, don’t panic.  It’s completely normal.

In other news, I recently submitted about 30 short works to lit mags around the country.  I expect to receive at least one or two bites, but  those of you familiar with the mystical world of literary magazines will know that my submissions have disappeared into a black hole nexus for the next four months or so.

In the meantime, be sure to check out my two ongoing blogs, Minimalist Reviews and Story Science, both of which post informative articles on a weekly (or sometimes bi-weekly) basis.  Last week’s articles proved very popular: Minimalist Review of Argo, a film by Affleck and The Outrageous Justification Writing Exercise.  This week’s articles are: Minimalist Review of Jiro Dreams of Sushi, a film by David Gelb and Violence and Story.
