TERMINATE the TUMOR
The first time I met Colin was 2003, my freshman year, in the VCU dorms. We had a few mutual friends but had never really talked before, he came up and said "hey I got a job at Starbucks!" He knew I worked there at the time and it's funny now because we both look back at that moment as when we first met. Over the course of the past 6 years Colin has gotten to be a great friend of mine. He's truly a sincere, funny, all around great guy.

Local Lit: Red Bones by James Wayland
Not to generalize (well, ok, to generalize completely), but writers are weird characters. Not only do the compulsive manufacturers of written word harbor such standard proclivities as reclusiveness, sociopathy, indulgence in booze and experimental drug use, and general hedonism, but they universally suffer from the delusion that anybody wants to know what they have to say. Since we here at RVA suffer from that delusion as well, we’ve decided to enable the great literary tradition of self-injurious lifestyle and self-deprecation, and present you, dear readership, with a new regular series showcasing the wares of Richmond’s finest wordsmiths. Enjoy! - RVA
