faeries are cool (new vampires)

Carlsen have got me translating the third in Melissa Marr's bestselling urban fantasy quartet of Wicked Lovely novels, this one entitled Fragile Eternity. Read about the book here>> and visit Melissa's website here>>.

Tons of readers for this, I reckon. And one of the characters smokes. Faeries are cool.

poems

Translations of mine just out. 'My father's wristwatch', a poem by Niels Hav in The Los Angeles Review (here>>) and 'Boredom: seven poems around a theme' by Jørgen Leth (selected by the translator) in The Literary Review (here>>).

More from both writers to come soon in Canada's PRECIPICe Magazine.
