Finally
It’s a must-have for my library, of course. But for some reason I was dragging my feet even though some of the profits go towards Develop Don’t Destroy legal fees.
So last night I made the big purchase and am looking forward to some time on the green leather couch and reading it.
Quickly browsing through, I found myself wishing that they’d asked me to write something but I’m not famous or anything.
So maybe there was some sour grapes on my behalf. But come on, girl. Brooklyn Was Mine is an anthology of Brooklyn superstars: Lethem, Egan, Colin Harrison, Alexandra Styron (daughter of William) and more.
So it is with excitement, envy, sour grapes, and great interest that I open this book…
P.S. it’s available at the Community Bookstore.
Life is a scream
Berkeley Carroll girls compete
In greater measure than boys,
At next-door Ozzie’s shouting to see
Who makes the loudest noise.
