Get thee over to The Nerds of Color to check out an exceptional blog by Gary Jackson: "Why I Write (Well, At Least One Reason Why)", about a pivotal point in his life as a reader and a writer (Also, check Gary's book Missing You, Metropolis, a Cave Canem Poetry Prize winner, and chock full of comic book references!). Who says poets can't be nerdy and brilliant all at once? -rs
