Just in time for the holidays: something I made

I’m not quite sure how to explain it, but I designed, laid out, and printed a 2014 calendar that replicates the French Republican Calendar, a historical curiosity used in France for about 12 years during the French Revolution. I think it looks pretty great, and am excited to have conceived the project and carried it through.

The calendar is now for sale at Etsy. Or you can get in touch with me (at adamreger [@] yahoo.com) if you’re interested.

Read all about it, including what the French Republican Calendar was, over at the website I set up for my publishing venture, Dr. Homunculus Press.

New fiction at Pithead Chapel

I have a short story, “Commonplaces,” live online over at the excellent literary magazine Pithead Chapel. 

I’m delighted to be part of the issue, and to have “Commonplaces” out there. It’s one of my favorite stories. I wrote it during graduate school and have tinkered with it a bit over the years. I hope you enjoy it, along with the rest of the issue.
