Good news ...

... Kay Ryan, Outsider With Sly Style, Named Poet Laureate.

She's a hell of a poet, and a great person to boot.

I knew about this this afternoon, but the AP story was embargoed until 12:01 a.m., and I wasn't going to mention it until tomorrow morning. The Times, of course, is above such niceties.

  1. She's a wonderful choice and is someone who deserves this kind of recognition.
