Pierre Poilievre is leaning heavily into rage and disinformation. His interview with Jordan Peterson speaks volumes about where he will take the politics of our nation. I was once targeted by Jordan Peterson and the death threats I faced went off the charts. www.thestar.com/opinion/deat...

My chest feels crammed with the losses of so many very close writer friends over the past decade. Two were like brothers. Three were mentors. For some reason, it's hitting me as tonight's instalment of Insomniaville.

Did a reading in Kenosha, Wisconsin, at Carthage College in October, where Richard Meier was teaching my novel Pockets in his class. I read from that, as well as a bunch of poems. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbU5...

Loving the first issue of The Nu Review! Fantastic work on "Jewish-ish themes" by Ruth Danon, Charles Bernstein, Yerra Sugarcane, and more! Edited in a country just south of mine by @jordandavis.bsky.social! Plus, I'm lined up for issue 2, with my misleadingly Scottish-sounding name and all.
