Lafayette Wattles recently earned his MFA in Writing and has done a little bit of everything. He's modeled for Tommy Hilfiger (okay, two shows back in the 80's), acted with Amanda Plummer (so what if he played her dead husband), taught kids in England (perhaps setting them back hundreds of years). Well, he hasn't hunted polar bear or been stripped-searched or gone clogging, so he hasn't literally done everything, but he is quite the dancer—ask his dance team members. He has had poetry published most recently or forthcoming in Shit Creek Review, Prick of the Spindle, RUNES, Eclectica, and Slurve among others. Although he has long loved art, "Scholar" will be Lafayette's first published photograph.
