I Don't Understand How You Can Be

I Think That Most New Yorkers Would Object To Calling Me A New Yorker. I Didn't Grow Up Here.

I Think The Goal With Any Writing, But Especially Narrative Nonfiction, Is To Put The Blockade Of Putting Your Thoughts In This Unnatural Medium Of Print And Then Trying To Reach Through That And Actually Convey What's Going On, What You Think, And Make People Laugh And Recognize Themselves While Doing It. Definitely The Laughing Thing.

Like Most Citizens Of Popular And International Urban Centres, I Don't Take Advantage Of The Cultural Opportunities. Perhaps This Comes From Growing Up In Suburbia. Home Is Where You Eat, Sleep, Read, Watch Television And Ignore Your Parents. It Is Not Where You Go To The Ballet And Then Attend A Heated Panel Discussion About It Afterwards.

Yes. I Am Writing Full-time. Which Is Strange. It Feels Like Not Having A Job.

We All Deserve To Be Congratulated, But Sadly That Would Mean There's No One Left To Do The Congratulating.
