A blog about poetry, teaching, crime fiction (maybe), a certain amount of politics, guitar gear and other stuff.

Tired
Have I mentioned that i'll be very, very glad when this tenure-review business is over (for now) and the revisions are done and sent in? I don't mean to complain, but I kind of miss my wife and kids. And my guitars. And poker. And doing stuff that isn't work.

Dear thoroughly incompetent blues guitar player, Sorry to hear of your current state of exhaustion brought on by the academic lifestyle. If you (or your brother) happen to be in Atown around Christmas time I plan to be holed up in the basement on Forest with my son Michael, who is an HTC student in the TCOM department. We will be playing with guitars, banjos, keyboards, digital recorders etc., so stop by if you get a chance. The house has become a great little creative getaway. John Kortlander jkortlander@ccad.edu
I'm the author of the Frank Coffin mystery series, HIGH SEASON (2007), MATING SEASON (2009) and FIRE SEASON (2012) from St. Martin's/Minotaur. I've also published three books of poems VANITAS MOTEL (1998), THE PLEASURE PRINCIPLE (2001), and The MANSION OF HAPPINESS (2016), all from Oberlin College Press. I'm currently at work on a comedic novel and a new book of poems. When I'm not writing I'm a college professor, a sort of okay guitar player, a guitar gear junkie, and a husband and father in progress.
