I Am Richard Simmons.

We should begin by saying that TBWCYL, Inc. spokesperson Ben Tanzer's ml press chapbook I am richard simmons has arrived here at headquarters along with more introductions to a book I will never finish by mark baumer and boots walking in america found a trophy by krammer abrahams. We should add that despite the fact that we did not receive a new chapbook by Kendra Grant Malone we are still quite happy. Many thanks to the ml press crew and drinks on us for sure when next we get together.

Quite exciting ml press pre-order updates and much Richard Simmons for your consumption

We have much ml press excitement to share. First, our ml press chapbook I Am Richard Simmons is now available for pre-order along with two other October releases, More Introductions To A Book I Will Never Finish by Mark Baumer and Boots Walking In America Feel A Trophy by Krammer Abrahams. And second, ml press is also releasing an anthology titled MLP: First Year, which is a collection of all of the ml press chapbooks released during its first year and is filled with a slew of killer writers. MLP: First Year will not be coming out until January 2010, but it too is available for pre-order now. Yes, right now. As we said, there is much ml press excitement to be had, so please do have it, and please do pre-order. It just might change your life.

Wunderbar. First, a William Walsh - Michael Kimball intersection, and now a Mark Baumer - J.A. Tyler mash-up. It's almost too much to process.

Right? Just last week we reported on TBWCYL, Inc. favorites Michael Kimball and William Walsh joyously intersecting at the Word Riot and this week we are stunned to find a terrifically wacked-out, yet not so atypical, Mark Baumer/Everyday Yeah interview with none other than the J.A. Tyler. How's this possible? Its mayhem, wonderful intersecting stellar writer on writer mayhem, and we just can't take anymore. Okay, we can. So, who's up next week? Huh? Who?

I am Richard Simmons. And we are quite proud to announce it. Well that, what's up at the kick-ass ml press and how all this just might be related.

We should probably add here that we are quite thrilled that our short story "I am Richard Simmons" will be published as part of the new slew of ml press chapbooks. This is a fantastic series and we are way geeked to be included with such a stellar group of writers including TBWYL, Inc. favorites Mark Baumer, Mary Hamilton, the Amy Guth, and many others. Further, and yes, there's more, for $36 American dollars, you can get all 18 volumes to be released, plus ml press' first perfect-bound novella by none other than Molly Gaudry. Coolness, yes? Totally. So, many thanks to ml press and the endlessly cool J.A. Tyler for the interest in this piece and as for the rest of you, please go place your order now, yes, right now, go, great, and thank you as well.

His head maybe isn't on straight. Most Likely You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine gets Everyday Yeah'd and likes it. A lot.

Mark Baumer and the most excellent crew at Everyday Yeah have written one of their killer faux reviews of Most Likely You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine and we are most appreciative. Many thanks sir and when next we meet drinks are definitely on us. We would add, that back in the day Everyday Yeah did a quite awesome faux review of Lucky Man as well, and so please feel free to revisit that one too. No really, go ahead, read them both, there you go. Thanks.
