What I Will Be Reading
When, exactly, I'll be reading this, I don't know. I am near the end of a novel, with two books waiting to be read and reviewed, two more sitting on my nightstand, and a host of other titles noted to be bought or borrowed. But I was blown away by the poems by John Updike that were published in the March 16 New Yorker, and you can bet that I'll be reading the collection Endpoint and Other Poems. Hopefully, sometime very soon.
Erika Dreifus lives and writes in New York City. Her story collection, Quiet Americans, will be published in January 2011 by Last Light Studio Books. Erika is a contributing editor for The Writer magazine and an advisory board member forJ Journal: New Writing on Justice, and she wrote the section on "Choosing a Low-Residency MFA Program in Creative Writing" for the second edition of Tom Kealey's Creative Writing MFA Handbook (Continuum, 2008). Erika's writing practice encompasses fiction, poetry, and nonfiction. For more about Erika's writing, please visit her website.
Erika is also the editor/publisher of The Practicing Writer, a free (and popular) e-newsletter featuring advice, opportunities, and resources on the craft and business of writing for fictionists, poets, and writers of creative nonfiction.

Absolutely.
