My nephew Brian Citro has just had released an album of solo jazz guitar (5 of his original compositions 2 Thelonious Monk tunes, and a jazz standard) from Chicago’s ears&eyes Records. It’s called “Acoustic Pastime – Solo Guitar,” and it’s a dreamy, meditative, beautiful album and I highly recommend it. Also, I wrote the liner notes to it!

Sarah E. Ruhlen’s “He Wasn’t There The Next Day”
One year ago my partner and I participated in Ander Monson’s June 21 project, where we each wrote a nonfiction essay about what happened to us on June 21, 2018. Monson has now edited a pdf anthology of 25 essays out of the 250 originally published, and Sarah’s “He Wasn’t There The Next Day” was chosen! It’s beautifully designed, published by New Michigan Press, with new introductions and suggestions for teaching! You can download the anthology for free from Essay Daily HERE.
