Sufjan Stevens Literature

Thanks to All Good Naysayers, I just found out that Sufjan Stevens has a degree in creative writing, and has some written work floating around out there. AGN have provided various short stories, essays, interviews, and reviews from Sufjan Stevens.

Among these written works is an 18-page short story entitled We Are Shielded By The Holy Ghost, which I just began reading. It was written in 2002, and won The New School Chapbook Award in the fiction category in 2003. It also went on to be printed in 2003. While it is not known how many exact copies were printed, they were sold at shows during that time. I'm wondering if I could possibly find a physical copy somehow. For now, though, the electronic version will do just fine.
