It is very exciting as an author when the right narrator performs your work. The Puschcart-nominated story DULCE DOMUM is written in first person, male POV. For less than a dollar, you can download it at the SNIPLITS website. Feel free to post comments here after listening–or post them on the Sniplits site directly.

Beautiful News

Now that the Pen Parentis website is launched — and getting great press – De Voe promises to finish her novel. Really.

Just this once

milda — Tue, 29 Mar 2011 19:31:35 +0000

Normally stringent about keeping her professional activities separate, just this once, De Voe invites you to visit her at the office — Pen Parentis, the organization where she is executive director, has just launched a stunning new website. You can hear podcasts of readings by many of the authors who have graced the stage of the Pen Parentis Literary Salons, you can check out the public blog, you can sign up for the general mailing list–or if you are an author who is also a parent, you can sign up for membership and get all the cool perks the other members currently get. Do check it out–additionally, the Pen Parentis Writing Fellowship for New Parents is accepting applications now through April 20. If it’s not for you, perhaps you can forward the link to your friends or post it on your favorite bookish website.

Short and fresh

DeVoe’s newest publication is "Fuerte Marejada" now available in JERRY MAGAZINE! This online literary journal’s second issue is crisp and full of wonderful short pieces, easy to read over coffee. Feel free to comment on the story by clicking the comments link at the bottom of this post.

Thanks to all of you who came out to KGB two weeks ago, and a special shout-out to Karen Moulding who organized the event!

Three things

milda — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 22:04:34 +0000

NMW has mailed out hardcopy of the lovely New Millenium Writings 2011 in which DeVoe’s prize winning story, Empty, appears. Empty tied for first prize in Summer 2009 for the NMW short-short fiction competition. The anthology is edited by Don Williams.

Also: a new story in Jerry Magazine – coming soon! Corrections submitted last week. Matter of days, probably.

Finally: not begging or anything, but please turn out for the KGB reading this Saturday night 2/19 at 7pm.

KGB REDUX-REDUX

milda — Sun, 30 Jan 2011 02:48:38 +0000

Reading at KGB is great–an unearthly hush descends upon the second-story bar as soon as the mic goes live. Stalin glares down from the red velvet walls. A tardy beer is pulled and patrons glare in synchronicity at the offending noise. Occasional ambulance sirens break the tension–or add to it. Literature is taken very seriously here. You gotta love it.

M. M. De Voe will be appearing at KGB for the third time (!!) on Saturday, February 19th, 2011. All are invited, no cover.

KGB Bar
85 East 4th Street
second floor

With fellow Columbia grad Karen Moulding and comedienne Hillary Schwartz.
