Isak (www.isak.typepad.com) is a space to celebrate tales and truth in the curious, joyful way embodied by the writer--Isak Dinesen--for which it is named.

By tales, I mean fiction (especially short fiction), as well as other literary and artistic narratives. By truth, I mean the world in which we live. I especially have my eye on creative social justice.

Meanwhile, The Collagist (www.thecollagist.com) is a monthly literary journal that features short fiction, poetry, essays, book reviews, and an excerpt from a forthcoming novel. I contribute video book reviews ... which are also part of this channel.

A journalist and a fiction writer; an editor and an activist; a progressive person interested in creative approaches to art and to justice work.
