I haven’t written in this blog for almost a month, and I’m not really going to boo hoo about it. Think of my occasional blog entries as you would other unexpected gifts like a snow day or a blog entry you find on the sidewalk.

Here’s a pic from my reading in Brooklyn:

If you’re wearing your fashion glasses, you’ve noticed that I’m in the same sweater in both this picture and the one from my last entry. And if you’re really paying attention, you’ll recall it’s the same one I was wearing at the Lorem Ipsum reading a couple of months ago. It’s my one “classy” sweater, and I’ve just discovered that moths have been munching on it. This always happens, and I’m tired of it. At my reading in February, expect me to show up with a space heater strapped to my bare chest.  

Sorry to make you see that.   

Oh yes, there’s an event in February. It’ll be at the McNally Robinson bookstore in SoHo on the 11th. Not one, not two, not four, but three TOW writers will be reading that night. There might be a party of some sort afterwards as well as another reading at some point that week. 

Just when it seemed like I was going to have to sell my body to the rich and menopausal, I got a job. I’ll be a marketing writer/editor for LaGuardia Community College. It’s like what I did at Berklee, but with fewer vibraphone solos. Whew.
