Fun with Google
Hey, look! I have a Wikipedia entry! Tee hee. Can you edit your own Wikipedia entry as long as it's factual?
Hey, look! A bad review of my book has been up on NewPages since the beginning of October, and I just found out about it! Tee hee. I think "It's another small-town isolation of a bruised, insular kid, using his slightly above-average intelligence to justify his misanthropic judgments" is one for the blurb file. Baffling logic plus inaccurate ad hominem, yay!
Hey, look! I'm officially going to be reading at the InKY Reading Series in Louisville come May. Hurray!
Hey, look! My poems from Beloit Poetry Journal are online, and I didn't realize it. They're also in the book.

I like the backhanded compliment of "slightly."
I think someone's going around creating wikipedia pages for poets...

To be honest, I'm not even actually sure what the reviewer is really trying to say about your book!
Love the wikipedia entry...now I want one!

I think it's kind of funny that she slipped into the Royal "we" at the end of the interview, as though she had just found her crown.
