I have an active page on Facebook, which I primarily use to share the latest news about my work and upcoming appearances. I was active on Twitter, but not anymore. From 2011 until 2015, I taught at Bard College as the Distinguished Writer in Residence, and am currently a member of the English Department at Harvard University, where since 2018 I have been a Professor of the Practice of Creative Writing. My courses in the past few years have been in writing (fiction and non-fiction) and contemporary literature.

Selected interviews and profiles: Lunch with the FT, audio on Radio Open Source and CBC Radio, and these two in print: at Guernica and at 3AM Magazine. Other interviews are at Mint, PBS NewsHour, and Mother Jones. A profile on Poets & Writers. I’m especially fond of this conversation with Aleksandar Hemon.
