Sorry for the lack of updates everyone. The site is not dead... my computer is :( I've had a catastrophic motherboard failure. Due to the age of my system (socket 939, agp only etc) it is difficult to replace. Thus, it is easier to build a whole new system from scratch which won't happen for a few weeks yet.
Hopefully I will be able to get online this weekend with a proper update. (Thanks to everyone who has sent me links over the last few weeks, I'm only just catching up on email). Nick | | No comments for this item |

I hope you are having as good a day that I am, no matter where you are! Beautiful warm day here on the east coast of Australia... beach and a swim tomorrow! On the DFW front, apparently Chaffey Review copies are arriving, so keep an eye on that mailbox. Now for the big news. It looks like "The Planet Trillaphon as It Stands in Relation to the Bad Thing", DFW's earliest published short piece, will appear in the Summer issue of Tin House. This is a wonderful opportunity for readers to experience this great piece without having to travel to Amherst. | | This item includes 2 comments |

Brief Interviews with Hideous Men Movie News

It is old news now, but just in case you were not aware, the Brief Interviews movie will debut at Sundance. Underwire, a wired blog, has a little write up that ends with a quote from Krasinski: "The only thing I'm terrified of now is David Foster Wallace fans," he says. "I hope I do him justice." Don't worry John, we're all just keen to see the film. Is anyone heading to Sundance to see it? I'd be happy to go if someone wants to shout me tickets from Australia to the US... :) | | No comments for this item |

Hi everyone, Just a quick correction to the email posted previously about the Chaffey Review piece. Below is the new official email sent to me from The Chaffey Review with some minor detail changes.
---
We here at The Chaffey Review literary magazine would first like to extend yet another expression of sympathy towards the entire David Foster Wallace fan community concerning his tragic passing.
We do, however, have news concerning a Wallace story. Before his death, Wallace agreed to donate a short portion of a larger work ("An Untitled Chunk") along with non-exclusive publishing rights, to the students of Chaffey College, allowing us to print it in the first edition of our literary magazine. The magazine is being published this January and our contract with Wallace's literary estate dictates that we cannot publish any portion of the piece online, nor duplicate it in any other publication.
You can find more information about The Chaffey Review at http://www.chaffeyreview.org/. We request that you pass on this information about Wallace's piece to the rest of the Davis Foster Wallace fan community in order to promote this new journal that contains one of the last pieces of his work.
Thank you very much,
The Chaffey Review Literary Magazine | | No comments for this item |
