Date: July 26th 2009

 Hello everybody -- just a QUICK note to let you know a few important things:

I have been doing some radio and babbling terrifically, although at queerly different pitches and speeds, like a Victrola. (Bob Edwards in particular seemed to somehow prompt me to mimic his meditative, meandering tone, which is better than unconsciously imitating an English accent, I guess, which I apparently do all the time.) In any case! Hear me talk of V.C. Andrews, periods periods periods, and my favorite book, Secret Lives, on:

• TALK OF THE NATION (incest, Amoss)
• THE BOB EDWARDS SHOW (periods, boys)
• A YALSA PODCAST WITH MICHAEL CART (Richard Peck, death of print)

Attention NY'ers and Tri-State area people! I will be appearing at the TRIBECA BARNES AND NOBLE Tuesday night, doing Lord Knows What but it will be fun. Come if you can! Download ics, event info below, or click for BookTour thinger.
