* Darryl Ayo Braithwaite wrote in to disagree with my article yesterday on the TCJ message board thread regarding Jason Karns' work. I appreciate him writing in. David Brothers wrote a response on his Tumblr. I appreciate him doing so. There was a spirited discussion on Twitter yesterday that makes me think a few more posts are likely to spring up -- I bet there's a chance we see something at Hooded Utilitarian -- if anyone wants to make me aware of them so I can link to them. .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) I always appreciate being taken to task, and am happy to afford someone the platform to do so.
* John Crace talks to Ellen Forney. Aaron Colter profiles John Lewis. Teresa Miller talks to James Vance -- I couldn'y figure out how to embed that one.
