Back to Journal ![]() « First Post | My First Review | Modern Conveniences » My First Review November 18, 1998 (Selected republication of old entries from the pre-Movable Type journal...) Yes, it looks like I grew some guts in the last week. I now have two creative nonfiction pieces, one fantasy short story, and a query letter out there, awaiting judgment from four different publications. My site [Kartania.com, at this time called "Alex in Wonderland"] is now reviewed and showcased on Soliloquy [since closed], who offered an incredibly generous review of my site and my work: "Alex in Wonderland," she writes, "offers no white rabbits (and no white elephants). Instead, it introduces a multitalented humorist who appears destined to become one of the renown literary names of our time. Alexander Wilson is the author of the amusing 'Fly Casual' column in Ashland University's 'The Collegian' . . . creator of the premiere 'High Or Learning' comic strip in that same publication . . . father of 'Rip,' the delightfully funny hero (or victim?) of Alexander's interactive online stories . . . and composer of touchingly beautiful songs like 'Better Not' . . . all of which are available for your enjoyment at 'Alex in Wonderland.' An absolutely gifted craftsman at work here, ladies and gentlemen. Watch for this name on future bestseller lists . . . "My thanks and appreciation to Soliloquy. |
