SHOES, TYPEWRITERS
STATUS: Loving the phrase “the commoditization of grief.” I heard it this weekend in reference to the sale of If I Did It.
Big day today. I’m supposed to get the DONUT DAYS edits from Stacey and I discovered that LJK Literary has added me to their website. Yay! I’m no longer the red-headed stepchild! Okay, not that I ever was – not really. Uncle Larry says he lurves me and I believe him. If he locks me in the attic and feeds me arsenic little bits at a time and I suddenly find a sibling really attractive, we might have a problem on our hands (name that “literary” reference and win a prize in the form of my total respect). But for now, we’re good.
In other news, I have the BEST. JOB. EVER. Why? Oh, why you ask? I get to interview Laura Kasischke. If I could just spell her name without checking it every time, though. Durn it. Anyway, the woman’s written some seriously fab books, and one of them was SO fab that they’ve made it into a movie starring Uma Thurman. Who I have a secret girl-crush on. Ethan Hawke? You are one stupid man. Stew-pid. Anyway, back to Laura. I get to chat with her in early October about her writing, and the movie, and maybe shoes because I bet she’s that kind of woman. I bet she has GREAT shoes.
Anyway, if there’s anything you want me to ask Laura for you, just post it to my blog and I’ll get on it. And, dur, I totally plan to ask her what she’s wearing to the movie premiere.

Careful with those cracks about redheaded stepchildren there, missy.
Signed, a redheaded stepchild who thinks you’re talking about Flowers in the Attic except its been too long so I don’t remember anything about arsenic
