In my dream all my shoes are gone after one night sleeping in the building. I take the elevator to a loft upstairs and S grabs me from behind to cut me with the kitchen knife he holds . I grab it and stab his eye, but we are still locked together, deliberate.

After many stops and starts, I finally got to do something I’ve wanted to do for a long time: approve the cover for my forthcoming book, My Studio Is A Dungeon Is The Studio, published this fall by Duke University Press. It’s an anthology of art writing, performance scripts, short fiction, essays, and a bunch of other things and it’s been in the works for over five years. It would not have existed without the incredible work of Jarret Earnest, who has proved to be a great editor and and good friend. There are going to be a lot of other things planned around its release, but approving the cover is a moment that makes it seem shockingly real in a way that I didn’t expect.

In my dream: first the fight where I die to the razor wire. Then, O has a tray full of food for me   along with papers and so I need to find them at the trattoria on the east side. C and S are there too, and we all joke with the waiter.
