:::: One morning O. et cetera et cetera:

2.3.3 Addendum (2): Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your promise. . . . pg. 187

:::: O. first met Lidia Yuknavitch in San Diego in, O. wants to say, 2000, when they shared the stage for a reading. O. met Larry McCaffery there three or four years before.

Lidia was writing angry, visionary, post-Acker, post-Cixous prose, editing two girls review, making an alternative scene happen around her. She went on to found Chiasmus press, bring out two anthologies featuring innovative Northwest writers, serve for years on the board of directors at Fiction Collective Two, coordinate several innovative writing conferences in Portland where she moved shortly after our paths crossed, and continue to publish raw animated books.

Larry was writing about the latest trends in contemporary fiction, interviewing experimental authors, editing important anthologies of innovative and cyberpunk work, co-editing Fiction International. Part post-hippy optimist, part narrative Marco Polo, he was the kind of guy who always had a deranged novel or film on the tip of his conversation when you bumped into him.

Lidia and Larry became two of O.’s essential literary guides, teaching him versions of the same lesson: writing is only one creative act among many that defines contemporary textual life.
