“Stress City is a core sample of the D.C. male psyche, a tube that comes out striated with the compacted layers of what's on these guys' minds: death, race, sex, death, race, sex, death, traffic, sex.... makes me feel like I never left. Recommended for Washingtonians past and present." – Jordan Ellenberg, author of The Grasshopper King

The latest in the ongoing "Guy Walks Into a Bar" series. In this one, Joe arrives for a blind date, determined to "get back out there" after his divorce. But is he ready for this?

Sylvia Sukop has an article Flaut magazine, issue #93, now on newsstands. It's a 10-page feature based on extensive interviews with 75-year-old photographer Vaughan Rachel, the first wife of Allan Kaprow, inventor of Happenings and pioneer of performance art. It also features never-before-published photos from Vaughan's personal archive.

For the next 14 days you can access a PDF of the full story here:
