This midterm is NOT a drill New York! Get out there! Early voting extends through the weekend. And it takes five seconds. Still on the fence?

And please do not hate on Candy Corn — frankly, it’s just unseemly.

The perfect Saturday interviewing the wonderful @chris.pavone about his riveting and thought-provoking new novel TWO NIGHTS IN LISBON. Trust me, you don’t want to miss it. Thank you so much @morristownbooks for the most wonderful, fully packed book festival day—just like old times in the best possible way.

Plus I got to hug @adrianatrigiani IRL—it really doesn’t get any better.

I wrote my first eight books in coffee shops (FIVE unpublished, three published—RA, WTFH, The Outliers). Most of them in the Park Slope Starbucks where everybody knew my name. Literally. 9/10 hours a day, every day. (The chairs are hard as hell I can tell you that much). I was there so much that when the Park Slope Starbucks planned to close for renovations the manager sat me down to warn me…gently.

I knew then it was time to move on and I did — thank you @brooklynwriters. But today I find myself between meetings working at a Starbucks in midtown for the day and though I am finding it impossible to concentrate (how did I do it before!) it’s good to be reminded.

Because sometimes where you came is the only thing that can truly light the way forward.

And to anyone out there writing in some coffee shop somewhere today thinking “why the hell am I even doing this” — I don’t know. But I am sure you need to keep on, keeping on. I’ll be here pulling for you.💗

First in-person book club in THREE LONG YEARS. Just as wonderful as I remember. Thank you so much for the lovely Saturday night ladies and for so generously supporting @bronx_science!

(P.S. did I mention this makes me an honorary member for life…see you at next month’s meeting!)
