A nod to Kierkegaard and Walker Percy: existentialist tomfoolery, political satire, literary homage, word mongering, a year-round summer reading club, Dylanesque music bits, apocalyptic marianism, poetry, fiction, meta-porn, a prisoner work-release program.

Excellent news.
Slant can attend to the minds and souls of Our Lord’s gifted-and-talenteds in the Ivory Tower*, allowing Korrektiv to focus 100% on creating a new, living literature, of and about and for the common man.
I’m amused by the fact that Slant’s title is all about skew, while Korrektiv’s is about setting crooked things right. That does suggest a certain catholic complementarity.
Better Food for a Better World sounds like a promising inaugural publication, too.
Definitely keep an eye on this crew.
* Though of course Korrektiv has a spy in the house of learning and — just maybe — a rogue MFA, which does mix things up.
You forget Korrektiv has a house theologian as well.
(You, Angelico, not me. My books gives some people hives. Heh.)
***
New outlets for this kind of literature are always great news, though.
My posts give grammarians hives as well. Sorry.
You’re Fowler compared to me.
Then who’s Pyle?
By “some people,” you no doubt mean heretics and the humorless.
You repeat yourself.
You do not want to ask John Calvin to pull your finger.
But, you know, I like me…My wife likes me.
JOB
hee hee. I knew you’d get the reference. And I hope you realize its a joke. In fact I know you do; you’re not a heretic. 🙂
Yes…and I don’t beat my wife either.

JOB: one of two house poets and aspiring house saint for dealing with this thread
Shirking our prophetic vocation, are we, IC? Sorry to say what you evidently don’t want to hear, ma’am, but, like it or not:
You are the house theologian.
You are the house theologian.
You are the house theologian.
I’m as much a theologian as a kid with a vinegar-and-baking-soda volcano (his mom made) is a chemist. If I’m a theologian, Forrest Gump was a physicist because he played ping-pong.
So yes, it’s all on you.
But thanks!
The power to give people hives seems like a prophetic sign; cf. the Sixth Plague of Egypt.
Wish Cubeland Mystic were here to consult.
Ironically, I teach Exodus in 20 minutes and counting.
Not sure whether I am flattered or scared.
Slant is bizarro Korrektiv.
