We noticed that you were a Jorge Luis Borges fan, and we wanted to let you know that we've just published a brand new translation of his story, "Gradus Ad Parnassum," in our anthology, 'flatmanCROOKED – First Winter.' "Gradus Ad Parnassum" is not currently in print in English, so we're rather excited to publish what is to many Borges fans brand new work. The book also includes debut fiction from National Book Award winner Ha Jin, as well as stories from myriad other established and emerging authors. Check the book out at www.flatmancrooked.com/fmcmarket.html. If you get it through our website, it's significantly cheaper than through Amazon or Barnes & Noble!

Nice to meet you, too. I have appreciated your intelligent comments on politics.

BTW, there is a Seattle group on LT although it is pretty quiet. And a small group of us are starting a book group, reading In The Woods (a crime novel set in Ireland). See the threads in the Seattle group if you are interested. You certainly would be welcome.
