This time it's poet/author Tao Lin. I only discovered Lin last year, but quickly figured out he's pretty amazing - he's one of those rare cases in which I love his poetry as much as his prose. I began with 'You are a little bit happier than I am' followed by his debut novella 'Shoplifting from American Apparel', and on from there, though I don't really think it matters where you start with him. His second novel 'Richard Yates' will be out soon (according to his blog).

Yes, another blog post, once again consisting of me singing the praises of certain talented people. What of it?
