STRANGER DANGER

You say agoraphobic like it's a bad thing, but leaving the house is entirely overrated.

There Is No There There

April 11, 2012 by Shanna

 

 

I went to a fancy writer’s salon last week. I brought a shitload of wine and cheese and I spent an hour helping set up beforehand and I still felt like a fucking imposter.

Someone got shitfaced and sang Joe Walsh into a microphone. A woman asked me if writing my blog was fun. I was supposed to have dinner with a writer I deeply admire, but the night slipped away and it didn’t happen. There was a long conversation where several writer women professed to have big, thick writing cocks. I’m guessing at least one of them didn’t remember it the next day.

In quasi-related news, I had an email exchange with a young writer about fellowships and writer’s block and what can really fuck us up and I wrote about it here. It wasn’t fun.
