Looks sweet and cuddly, but watch out for the claws...
Here's a bit of doggerel that some of you might recognize from our Halloween cards a few years back: "Devil's Night." I tried to get a little more ambitious, so my reading is accompanied by some noodlings on the bowed psaltery -- and Kipper, who decided he couldn't settle down and be quiet. I suppose I could have re-recorded it, but I'm far too lazy and I have a deadline to meet, so back to work now. Enjoy!
This is a blog for writer K. A. Laity, the author of Unikirja (Aino Press 2009), a collection of short stories based on the Kalevala, Kanteletar, and other Finnish myths and legends, for which I won the 2005 Eureka Short Story Fellowship and a 2006 Finlandia Foundation grant. I have also written Pelzmantel: A Medieval Tale as well as other stories and essays. I teach medieval literature, film, New Media and popular culture at the College of Saint Rose. The news blog title comes from my first student film, Un Amor Peligroso or the Wombat's World; it was also the title of a zine I used to publish. Unless otherwise identified, all writing here © K. A. Laity. Lege feliciter!
