Yeah--you can have some:

To a writer, nothing beats the pleasure of being all alone in a comfortable chair with a blank paper or screen and a head that's snapping and bubbling like a deep fryer full of frozen jalopeno poppers. But a pleasure that comes close is the opportunity to introduce new work, good work, by other writers. This week NCPR Online begins its long-promised follow-up to the email serial of Tim Brookes' book The Driveway Diaries with not one, but two new email serials: a full volume of new poetry from Native American writer Maurice Kenny, and a holiday special--a five-week serial of a spooky North Country Christmas story by Paul Willcott. These books are available nowhere else. I'm tempted to rub my hands together and mutter "mine, all mine," but in kindergarten I was taught to share. Don't make me sorry--sign up.
