John and I were co-editors of the school’s literary magazine, which inspired no such visceral reactions! Not that I wanted to be punched in the mouth, but in some inchoate way I realized then and there that literary publishing would never provide me with the kind of immediate, personal feedback loop I craved.</p> </blockquote> <p>(Glenn co-edited the book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1606995251/wwwaustinkleo-20/ref=nosim/"><em>Significant Objects</em></a> with my friend, <a
