You co-edited one of my favorite zines of the past year, Kill Yr Darlings; Draft Yr Tweets. How did the idea for that poetry zine come about?

i'd been wanting for a while to host some sort of reading or publish some sort of publication where people could sort of shove all the little love poems in their iphone notes without feeling like they had to be Really Good Poems (because all my poems are bad but I love them!) and one night eve and sam and I got to talking at a birthday party when we were all real drunk, then I woke up to an email being like "let's do this!" and i was like oh right, that. and then it became this beautiful thing!

You recently explained how veggie sandwiches can be good in your excellent newsletter Mess Hall. What else re: good sandwiches?

oh come on ryan this is a really vague question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! okay here are my thoughts

Some
Are
Not that good, so
Don't fuck
With any sandwich that doesn't
Include some sort of
Condiment; even
Hot sauce counts?? maybe??
Everyone subscibe to my tinyletter
Saltie is brooklyn's best restaurant

What can people expect from your reading?

I honestly have zero idea, hopefully it will be some FRESH NEW EXCLUSIVE content, but maybe i'll read an excerpt from my very old personal blog to make everyone real uncomfortable! Last time I read about phone sex, right? Ha ha I won't do that again but it was fun.
