Ah, twitterees... if you know about Bethanne Patrick (@thebookmaven) and her wonderful Friday thread, "Friday Reads," then you're an in-the-know type of person. Post on twitter with #fridayreads hashtag what you're reading. It doesn't have to be fancy, literary, je ne sais quoi... if it's written and you can read it and want to share with other readers, let Bethanne know.
But now it's spreading. Not hip to the tweets? That's okay, because TheBookLady's blog is holding up that end of the vibe.
Go here and let the book lady know what you're reading! Spread the reading word, amen!
About Me
- jessica handler
- Atlanta, Georgia, United States
- My first book, "Invisible Sisters: A Memoir" has been named one of "Twenty Five Books All Georgians Should Read!" I would love to visit your bookclub, either in person (in the South) or through the magic of electronics. My writing has received a "Special Mention" for a 2008 Pushcart Prize. I have been honored with a residency at the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation in Bethany, CT., a Fellowship at the Hambidge Center for Creative Arts in Rabun Gap, Georgia, and the 2009 Peter Taylor Nonfiction Fellowship at the Kenyon Review Writers Workshop. Locally, I teach workshops in creative writing, memoir, and feature journalism, and am a member of the faculty of an art college, where I teach screenwriting. I hold an MFA in Creative Writing from Queens University of Charlotte (N.C.) and a B.S. in Communication from Emerson College, in Boston. I used to work in television. I did not push the broom behind the elephant. Usually, I served as mahout - I drove the (allegorical) elephant. If he was SAG or AFTRA. Rock stars do not scare me.
