Over at Kerry Clare's fresh new digs she's posted a great interview with Amy Jones, winner of the 2009 Metcalf-Rooke Award for her book of short stories, What Boys Like. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but I bought it after hearing her read at the Draft Reading Series back in October (I did, honest, you can see it on the edge of the chair in this photo), where I finally met Rebecca Rosenblum, but of course was too shy to introduce myself to Ms. Jones, having not already met her online. Expect a review of What Boys Like later in the year.
And speaking of Ms. Jones, you ought to check out this recent post on her blog, which is basically the cleverest thing I've seen online all week.
Update: What Boys Like has been reviewed in the Globe & Mail.

Oh, you should introduce yourself next time! I've always wanted to meet someone from Dryden...
Thanks for the shout out!
