Yesterday in photos - I'm not seeing the rotate option on Flickr, sadly, so my notes from my appearance on Boston Public Radio show
On Point (click to listen to the show) are sideways. They really do say it all about how insanely nervous I was, but I felt calmer the more it went on, confident I did, indeed, have something to contribute (and will be writing more about
Fifty Shades of Grey):

What seems like a game changer book for how I understand fiction,
Wired for Story
by Lisa Cron (see
wiredforstory.com for more information), which I discovered/bought at
Labyrinth Books. Subtitle is: "The Writer's Guide to Using Brain Science to Hook Readers from the Very First Sentence." Yes, it's about characters and how to make them realistic, but it's also about the very human need for story, a big topic this year (see also
The Storytelling Animal: How Stories Make Us Human
by Jonathan Gottschall).
