Hooray for The Rumpus
3 Feb
I have found a new internet addiction: The Rumpus.
Edited by author Stephen Elliot, The Rumpus defines itself as “an online magazine focused on culture with some politics (the subtitle is Books, Music, Art, Media, Film, Politics, Sex, Other– which kind of says it all).”
The daily Morning Coffee links have replaced my gawker.com/morning coffee habit, and my psyche is feeling much cleaner for it. And best of all is their focus on books. You can read Books Editor Andrew Altschul’s philosophy for the site here.
Check out the interview with former ASF contributor Jack Pendarvis and the article by ASF Editorial Advisory Member Dan Chaon on his late wife, author Shelia Schwartz.
