This weekend I interviewed Andrew Sean Greer at the @SoFestofBooks, and it was the hardest I’ve ever laughed on stage. If you weren’t able to be there, you can watch a recording of our conversation (in which Piggly Wiggly features prominently) online! m.youtube.com/watch?v=HiJHk8…

2 WEEKS TO GO! Though curious about which author sessions you're looking forward to, we thought we'd devote a bit of time to ... the audience! ➡ Who are you hoping will be in the audience with you this year? Tag all your friends and/or strangers with whom you'd like to Fest!
