Sample Platter

For those of you who haven't seen any of my work in ALARM yet, here are some previews of my work in the spring issue:

Here . . .

. . . here . . .

. . . and here.

The 250 word format is challenging; there's only so much you can say in that time. I know 500 would be easier, but I imagine that 100 would also be easier, because it would take away the illusion of in-depth content and leave me to make more impressionistic (or expressionistic) statements about my experience of the music.

On the other hand, I wrote these guys back in January, and I think my new batch is better. So there's something to be said for the practice of doing the short takes.

Anyway, enjoy!
