The guy won an award today. He's been at the writing business for longer than many of us have been alive... whether as author, editor, or agent. And
because he's been primarily a short-storyist for the past couple-dozen years, many people haven't bothered to read any of his work.
So, if you've never read anything by Barry Malzberg, this is your chance. The first twenty of you who send me an e-mail at alienmotives@verizon.net will get something free in the mail. It'll either be a magazine with a short story of his,
or an anthology with a short story of his, or an old collection or novel. A few of the items sent will be signed.
What's the catch? Simple. IF... and only IF... you enjoy what you've read, you promise to try to locate and purchase a copy of Breakfast in the
Ruins, the award-winning (and, admittedly, somewhat bleak) set of essays that was released last year.
