I Guess I'll Go Ahead and Let the Cat Out of the Bag

Tue, 09/07/2010 - 14:29 — pieceofmeat

Well, it's official, at least on paper: I finally signed a publishing contract to put out the book I've been chipping away at for the past year. If I haven't been posting here too much of late, well, you know why...

The book is titled "Dispatches from the Daehan: Six Years on the Korean Peninsula." It's a travel memoir of sorts, with a lot of other information about teaching here and steeping in the culture. It's being put out by Signal 8 Press, a new indie press out of Hong Kong being started by writer/publisher/editor and general madman Marshall Moore, aka [info]msminpdx.

It's not 2005

In an apartment in Jinju, South Korea, I am sitting on the ondol-heated floor, smoking another cigarette.

CNN International is on. It's a full hour before I head back to class at a small hagwon down the street, on the main road, on the third floor, above a restaurant where we often have our dinners brought from, unless Emily, the director, makes her excellent kimchi jigae for us. Once or twice, she splurged and bought Chinese take out, which she noted was very expensive. It was probably the chicken, chicken always seems expensive in South Korea, except for the chicken sandwich at Popeye's I got one time, not because I was hungry, just because I wanted to see what it tasted like. It tasted like a chicken sandwich bought at a Popeye's in South Korea.
