Good news! The New York State Council on the Arts has awarded me a $10,000 grant to support my writing an epic, speculative cross-genre novel that limns the continua of exile, diaspora, fusion, limbo, and hauntology, and their interstices. The novel deeply engages the poetics of not only relation but of being and becoming, displacing conventional notions of the “self” and the “self”’s “surroundings,” that is, the external conditions and forces and histories that are always fraught, always contingent, etc.
Excelsior!
