Some things on the Internets that you should know about

  • Jemiah Jefferson has a fabulous wovel-in-progress, FirstWorld, over at Underland Press. What’s a wovel? A serialized novel on the web with a twist — as the editors explain: “Every week, the author posts an installment. Installment length hits the sweet-spot of online reading—long enough to get interested, short enough to read in the cubicle at work. At the end of every installment, the author writes in a plot branch point. Does the heroine kill her lover? Will the zombies catch the soldier? Is the box empty, or is it filled with bees? THE READERS DECIDE.”
  • Jim Ottaviani, publisher and author of many excellent comics about scientists, is totally blogging.
  • The Sexual Minority Youth Resource Center, aka SMYRC, based here in glorious Portland, has a podcast called the SMYRC Revolution. Listen and learn. I’ve already picked up a useful new expression, referring to the multitude of terms by which queer folks refer to ourselves: “The Gay-B-Cs.”
