Dragnet friend and Issue Three contributor, Shari Kasman, has started a fashion blog, called Hanging on the Line. It is based off of clothes people leave out to dry on their clotheslines, and it is awesome. 

Issue Three contributor Shari Kasman has a new story up at Joyland. The story, entitled, “Blindfolded Nude Male Swinging Stick at Donkey Pinata,” is as funny as its title suggests. The piece explores the art world as well as the nature of biography: 

Kurt von Hagersfeld (b. 1963) was born and raised in a small suburb of Boston where he developed such a strong love for celebrations that he relocated to Albuquerque, New Mexico to pursue studies in event planning and management. He remained there throughout the 1980s, then moved to San Francisco, relocated to Houston, spent time in Oklahoma City, and finally made his way down to New Orleans. He refuses to disclose the specifics of his current location since he believes that some details should be left to the imagination. Von Hagersfeld has said that the fact that he exists should be enough to satisfy anyone’s curiosity as to his whereabouts. The gallery’s clever administration team and support staff suspect that the artist makes his permanent home in either Los Angeles, New York, or Nevada, although von Hagersfeld has responded to these guesses by saying, ‘You’re wrong.’
