Is there someone in your life who’s just too happy? You know, that person who’s been wearing a sparkly reindeer sweater to the office every day since Thanksgiving…who began addressing his Christmas cards in October…who doesn’t realize that “Jingle Bell Rock” is the leading cause of atheism?

That person clearly needs a copy of A Talent for Sadness. For maximum effect, we also recommend Jean-Paul Pecqueur’s The Case Against Happiness. Just because we care. But not too much.

Welcome to the new JendiReiter.com, which differs from the old JendiReiter.com in that (1) it is a blog, and (2) it has no content. I hope to do something about (2) presently. My older poems and legal articles from the old site will be migrated over in the next month or so. Meanwhile, check out my other web ventures to find markets and contests for your poetry, or get your consciousness raised good and hard.
