It was a nice surprise to see that a reader had taken the train all the way from Connecticut for my event at the Barnes & Noble in the Village. Another happened to be in town from London, saw the bookstore poster, and popped in. I’m always amazed that anyone would want to take time out to hear me pontificate. So thank you to all those who came.
The Daily Beast did a profile of me yesterday, which you can read here. For those of you who have been hiding under a rock, the Daily Beast is published by none other than Tina Brown, former Vanity Fair and New Yorker editor. Here’s also an interview with Collected Miscellany’s Kevin Holstberry and a review of Secret Son by Aaminah Hernandez at the Feminist Review.
