Hosting Server Migration - Possible Downtime

UPDATE: Back up (now hosted in Las Vegas after a move from LA) and, I think, fully functional. Let me know if you discover a problem.

Hi everyone,

I'm currently hosting with an Australian company on US servers (which means faster access times for most of you) and tomorrow the host is formally launching as a US company. Thus, this site will be moving to the new US subsidiary and new servers tomorrow.

There might be teething problems...

You can check on the progress tomorrow via my David Foster Wallace related twitter feed.

Volume of Wallace Letters - Can You Help?

UPDATE: Second reminder! Please get in touch if you have anything to contribute to this upcoming publication.


Stephen J. Burn (David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest, Second Edition: A Reader's Guide, Conversations with David Foster Wallace, and the upcoming, A Companion to David Foster Wallace Studies with Marshall Boswell) is working with the estate of David Foster Wallace on a collection of David Foster Wallace's letters and he'd love your help.

Over to Stephen:

I’m currently working with the David Foster Wallace estate to prepare an edited volume of Wallace’s letters for publication. If you corresponded with Wallace, and have copies of a letter, postcard, or email that you’d be willing to share with me, then I’d be very grateful to hear from you; my email address is: sburn[at]nmu.edu (replace [at] with @ - just a little spam block - Nick)

Even brief notes can be helpful in the context of this project, and because my main focus is on Wallace as a writer, letters can be edited to preserve fundamentally private matters.

Thank you, Stephen Burn”

If you can help out I strongly encourage you to get in touch with Stephen via the email above (ensure you edit it to remove the spam block) or contact him via me here.
