Possibly the first U. S. President who wrote for his college literary magazine, President Elect Obama is the subject of the most recent cover of Fence. Shiny.

Fence 20

A brief e-note yesterday from editor Rebecca Wolff:

It was with great skillful-skill and speedy speed that our Manitoban printer got the brand new issue of Fence through its cogs and spindles like “s–t through a Canadian Goose,” as they said, but still that issue will not reach the stands in time to be viewed before tomorrow, which is Election Day, and which will decide whether I seek asylum in some other country or not.

Thankfully, Wolff can stick around for another four years.
