Jacob M. Appel:
Are you serious? How can one person hold all the advanced degrees that your Goodreads author profile says you have? If they are real, that is extremely impressive. I hope you are able to make good use of all the gifts you must have to be able to be a writer on top of all of that.

I am indeed real -- at least, last time I checked. And I actually do have all of those degrees, although they still charge me the same rate on the subway. Alas, there does not seem to be a correlation between graduate degrees and book sales.
On an amusing note, I once attended a production of a play I'd written and sat behind a group of people who read my biography in the program and insisted that it was fake...and, even after they looked me up on line, that my website, online presence, etc. was all a practical joke.
