“Something that has energized me lately is this great new site called HTMLgiant.com. They call it ‘the internet literature magazine blog of the future,’ and I’ve decided that joking or not, I think they’re right. They cover a broad range of what’s happening in the indie lit world with an enthusiasm that you would be hard put to find elsewhere. The contributors regularly take to the mat in the comments section, with down-and-dirty brawls of the highest literary order. This is a blog that makes me want to read/write/tear down a few walls.”
—Zach Plague, author of Boring Boring Boring Boring Boring Boring Boring (Featherproof Books, August 2008)
