I just got back from New York, where I interviewed John Waters on stage, thanks to Word, the bookstore in Greenpoint, Brooklyn; spent all day Saturday in the board meeting for the National Book Critics Circle; attended the Brooklyn Book Festival Sunday; and talked to a literary figure Monday for an upcoming piece in the LA Times.
I also took a ferry across the East River at sunset — can you see the teeny tiny Statue of Liberty?
If I tried to list everything I’ve done since my last post, though, this would get a little long. I’ve written lots and gotten out of the house every now and then. I’m now a staff writer at the LA Times. I’m doing laundry. I’ll see you at the Jonathan Franzen event tonight, and back here soon.
