Holy moly. What a busy couple of weeks. As you can see by the dearth of posts to this blog, I have been occupied elsewhere, including a wedding, a conference, and several other things. The wedding was great. I was the official photog, but I was also a guest. Autumn and I had a fabulous [...]

The Gents
The Norman Mailer Society is now a Pro. On Flickr, that is. As a part of the new-and-improved web site, we purchased a Flickr account where we’ll be posting our photos from the conferences, of the man himself, and other apropos events. This photo is by Mark James, and shows the Executive Board at Mailer’s [...]
NMS: Keeping Me Busy
After a year of using iWeb for the Norman Mailer Society’s web site, I finally wizened up and began using WordPress. Now, I have nothing against iWeb for beginners. It’s much better than the Micro$oft equivalent (what isn’t?), but it has some major flaws. For one, it is a pain in the butt to do [...]

Therefore, I decided that I would never go to a conference and read a paper again. The following video is my presentation for the Norman Mailer Society Conference for 2008.
Jesus & Norman Mailer

About that time, I was introduced to Norman Mailer’s work. Both gave me an interesting perspective on America, its values and its problems (sometimes stemming from said [...]
Norman Mailer Society 2007
The conference was another hit this year. Even though NM himself had to undergo surgery for a collapsed lung and could not make it to this year (we hear he’s recovering nicely: even thumb wrestling any contenders from his hospital bed), I think the conference was a stunning success. We had many excellent papers about [...]
