I think you would enjoy them, given that it looks as if you’re a narrative nonfiction writer. Plus, Harrison’s essays are just good companions.

I’m writing on behalf of the online-only literary quarterly, Wag’s Revue. I had stumbled upon your blog because of your discussion of Lee Gutkind from today because our publication just published an interview with him (www.wagservue.com). I also noticed your sidebar of online publications, and hope you’ll give ours a look and see if you wouldn’t mind adding it to your list. We devote as much space to nonfiction as fiction and poetry, and I would also venture to go as far as we are publishing some really great nonfiction (this issue features essays in four media: written, audio, graphic and video). We are also currently holding a writer’s contest, and the best submission in each genre will receive $500 a piece and publication (all details at: http://www.wagsrevue.com/submit.php).
Founded this Spring, Wag’s Revue seeks to marry the control and form of a traditional printed magazine with the freedoms of online distribution and multimedia expression. We’re released on the quarterly, and feature original fiction, poetry and nonfiction, as well as “interviews with waggish luminaries of our day,” (so far, in addition to Mr. Gutkind, John D’Agata–if you’re interested in genre debates in nonfiction, it’s great interview to take a look at it, especially in great contrast to Lee, also George Saunders, T.C. Boyle, Wells Tower, and Dave Eggers). We’ve received a write-up in Poets & Writers, and much chatter around the blogosphere.
I hope you’ll take a look, and perhaps give us a mention on your fabulously comprehensive site.
Take Care,
Sandra Allen
