Thankful that I still hold the reins while knocking at 80 years here,I realize change is inevitable. I extend my best wishes for the new spread and views of Perigee, and wish continued good luck to all those who made special efforts on my behalf at the Perigee editorial decision table in the past and into this new issue. (How many times I wished I could have been the fly on the wall.)
The journey continues to be the joy rather than the destination, so now
and then I like to reflect on some of the mileage and the way stations: I’ve had 10 books published since my retirement 16 years ago ("Epic Cures" and "A Collection of Friends" being the most recent), and push now for
"Brief Cases, Short Spans," coming in 2008; and look for homes for
"From the Quickening"; "Silas Tully, Saugus Cop Now and Then"; and five novels, all completed. Not that I’m in a hurry, but…
Gina M. Tabasso, a poet with her M.A. in English, has won numerous awards and has been published in Mangrove, The Common Review, Upstairs at Duroc, The MacGuffin, Mid-American Review, Slant, Blue Mesa Review, Pavement Saw, and many others. Gina earns her living as a communications specialist for a tire distributor and enjoys riding her horse, belly dancing and spending time with those she loves.
Thanks to the Editors at Perigree and also to the readers and other contributors. I have been publishing poetry and short stories most recently with Ararat Magazine, The Bitter Oleander, Common Ground, Karamu, and Poet's Lore. I also write and produce a podcast called Eye on Literature available at: http://eyeonliterature.blogspot.com
I'm delighted to be included and look forward to reading Perigree 17. New stories appear in Interfictions from Small Beer Press, "Logorrhea" from Bantam, and "Flytrap" from Tropism Press. I teach fiction writing at UCLA Extension and am currently looking for a needle and thread to repair a goose down comforter with a mysterious triangular hole. I suspect the Jack Russell Terrier's involvement, though she denies everything.
