Brilliant Danish artist, Thomas Warming. One word: QUALITY.
One of the most daring and talented writers out there. When I first read her book I thought, wow, if there is stuff out there like this, I wanna be a writer. Now I’m lucky enough to count her as one of my best friends (and still one of my favorite writers)

One of my really good friends, originally from Arkansas and now of Napa Valley… a brilliant writer with a top-rated wine/food blog….in other words, Brooke kicks ass!
His street photography will blow your fucking mind.
A literary journal run by my son Kaelan (see a KKK moment). Edgy, with a sense of humor, and not afraid to take risks. This is the future of lit mags right here.
Okay, so maybe you think poetry is boring. Well, this journal might change your mind. Ashley McHugh, one of the founders, went to Boston U. with me. But I wouldn’t recommend it just ’cause of that. This is poetry how it should be: alive and exciting.
There are a million web designers out there, but very few artists. I got lucky enough to find one of them, and he rocks.
The Sozopol Fiction Seminars, going into their third year, and gonna change the world.
The University of Arkansas Program in Creative Writing
Go Hawgs!!!!
Nic Pizzolatto, another graduate of the University of Arkansas MFA program. His writing is beautiful, and he also has a book coming out from Simon & Schuster (this fall). If your wondering how one program can turn out two Simon & Schuster writers in the same year, well, it is because of this man…
Donald “Skip” Hays, one of the best writing teacher in the country. Not to mention his own work, which will blow you away. Unlike me, he has never been a publicity whore to sell his books….I have a lot of respect for that. But it doesn’t mean I can’t be a publicity whore FOR HIS WORK, ’cause I am eternally thankful to have him as a mentor.
