About Me

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.

Another art mystery, or, thanks for including me in your performance piece!


So, it seems that Atlanta's got an art mystery going on, and Creative Loafing's wondering about it, and then a slip of a quote from Invisible Sisters is part of the performance, and I dig it.

"Follow your narrative urge," the envelopes read. Yes, indeed! Do that! How cool is it to be an example? Very!

Who's the mastermind? Who's got $10 bills to give away? Is it a scavenger hunt? Kudos to a clever artist. I can't wait to see what happens next.

I'm so curious to find out who it is.
Let's get together before I disappear to New Haven for most of June!
