In Which My (Small, Closed, Lame) World Collides
From an email received earlier on the subject of my (other) future husband, Joe Pernice:
Primarily known as a recording artist, Joe wrote the novella Meat is Murder for Continuum Books' 33 1/3 series in 2003. That book remains one of the bestselling pieces in that series, and Joe is working with Neal Huff, an actor who appears regularly on HBO's The Wire, on the Meat is Murder screenplay. Again, he is not forthcoming on when that project might see the light of day. He also previously published a volume of poetry called Two Blind Pigeons, on his own Ashmont Books imprint. That remains the bestselling (only) piece on Ashmont Books.
"The Wire" is connected to The Indie Rock and I didn't even know it. Consider my mind blown.
