C.A.B. Fredericks maintains the blog, and barely maintains everywhere else. He can be contacted at cab.fredericks@slicemagazine.org. All indictments regarding gross incompetence with regard to Slices of Life should be directed at him. It would be nice, by the by, were you to hire him. But under no circumstances should he be fed; he’ll just keep hanging around expecting more.

Alyse Speyer is a sandwich. The slices of bread are swirling images with punctuated lettuce, cheese that’s not cheesy and tooth-sinking meat that’s fun for all, even for sassy vegetarians. This sandwich comes with a literary combination of poetic snacks and fictional smoothies, a genuinely satisfying meal for a reader to digest. For more tasty treats, look in UCSB’s Spectrum, Catalyst, and Into the Teeth of the Wind. Enjoy!
