Irvine Welsh gained enormous notoriety (not to mention a huge cult following that overflowed into the mainstream) when the film adaptation of Trainspotting was released ten years ago. Since then he’’s written a number of other books chronicling the adventures of various fuckups, including a sequel to Trainspotting called Porno. Welsh has just released The Bedroom Secrets of the Master Chefs, yet another narrative about fuckups — but this time it’s fuckups on their way up in the restaurant world. The protagonist is Danny Skinner, a restaurant health inspector who is also trying to figure out who his father is.

Preparation:
Preheat grill and brush filets with canola/vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill about 3-4 minutes each side. Remove from grill and sprinkle with Citrus Vinaigrette. Let rest for 5 minutes to let fish absorb vinaigrette and flake with fork.

For many years Terry Moore has been one of the most significant and important cartoonists in America. His long running series Strangers in Paradise was one of the major comics of the 1990s and the black and white series won many awards including an Eisner Award, a Reuben Award for Best Comic Book from the National Cartoonists Society, and a GLAAD Media Award. What struck most of us reading the comic at the time, and even today, is how the book stands out not just among comics but among all media for its treatment of sexuality as the complex, often uncertain and fraught thing it is as his characters struggle with the lines between friendship and romantic love, attraction and affection.

Moore has written some comics for DC and Marvel including Birds of Prey and Runaways, but his focus continues to be his black and white comics which he publishes through his own Abstract Comics. Since Strangers in Paradise ended, Moore produced the science fiction adventure series Echo which has just been collected in a complete volume. His new book, which has just started being released, is Rachel Rising. It opens with a lengthy, creepy sequence where the titular character climbs out of her own grave. This fall Moore also begins to serialize a book How To Draw. A regular at many comic conventions this year, we conducted this interview over e-mail as Moore bounced between many states.
