Atticus Books will publish Alex Kudera’s novel, Fight For Your Long Day, in September 2010, but his Cartoon Bubbles from a City Underwater is still eligible for promotion. Most of Kudera’s stories survive in slush piles across the continent and huddled together in an unheated storage space in North Philadelphia. Two-thirds of a manuscript, The Book of Jay, recently migrated from his walk-in closet to his tallest shelf of book; his concepts and outlines include Diamond Ring and The Primal Screen. He rarely writes a sentence he cannot interrupt in favor of another project. And yes, he has been translated into Romanian and is in dialogue with China.

Kudera satirizes, interviews, and briefly notes for When Falls the Coliseum. He blogs at kudera.blogspot.com under the flag of the United States of Kudera; he has not yet determined if he is cultivating a mental disorder or intent on empire. Either way, he hopes for democracy. If you would like to read, represent, publish, or purchase Kudera, in advance, he thanks you for your efforts. Please email him at akudera [the symbol for at] whenfallsthecoliseum.com.
