EYESHOT-BRAND SPAM #9
UP YOUR SEASONAL WARMTH WITH 
REJECTIONS & RESONANCES & MORE!
TRANSMITTED NOVEMBER 23, 2008

To All Brave Souls! 

With remarkable hotness we compose this announcement to warm your cold house. Brevity is bliss, thus we direct you to this: 

RECENT REJECTIONS FROM THE EYESHOT OUTBOX 
The eighth installment of our friendly "collection of rejections" series (est. Nov 2001). Now trying to be helpful more than performatively arbitrary almost to the point of seeming sort of psychotic.

EYESHOT'S READERLY RESONANCE AWARD 
We're now sharing the sense/thought resonance of our reading, with short reviews that evangelize more than eviscerate (and always tell the truth). Recently added books include 2666, Stoner, The Elegance of the Hedgehog, Too Loud a Solitude, and maybe two dozen others recommended to get cozy with this wintertime.

EYESHOT'S INAUGURAL ANNUAL AWESOMENESS AWARD! 
We'd like to announce this year's winner of the inaugural "Eyeshot's Annual Awesomeness Award." The same story also wins this year's "The Best Story With a Common Profanity in the Title Award." And it is also the winner of "The Frank Conroy Said This Was One of the Best Uses of the Second Person ("You") He'd Read Award." We agree that it IS sort of lame that Roderic Crooks wins this award for his story, "F:)kbuddy," considering that he's a friend and former classmate from the old midwestern graduate school -- but whatever, we believe that dispersing goodness dispatches any worries about our lack of moral goodnessness.

ALSO! 
Learn about and maybe even purchase "What Happened to Us These Last Couple Years?: An Anthology of the Bush Years, 2000-2008." It's an anthology of stories, essays, and other stuff from lots of writers Eyeshot readers will recognize. Read all about it and purchase via Pay here: http://www.davidbarringer.blogspot.com 

WHAT ELSE? 
Congratulations to Obama bin Biden and the Phillies, two teams we really freakin' rooted for this fall.
