I wish we all lived closer together. Not in a commune-type situation, but within a fairly small radius so that when one of us has extremely good news, we could call each other up and meet at the nearest Cracker Barrel for some celebratory ham. I like ham.
I've been looking forward to seeing my essay, "Liner Notes," in The Moment: Wild, Poignant, Life-Changing Stories from 125 Writers and Artists Famous and Obscure. I received an advance copy last week and flipped it open to find the most amazing collection of authors including:
- Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jennifer Egan
- Pulitzer Prize finalist Dave Eggers
- New York Times bestselling authors Elizabeth Gilbert, AJ Jacobs, and Gregory Maguire
- Singer/ Songwriter Melissa Etheridge
This would have been the perfect opportunity for us to get together and eat some ham, yes? We could be that gang that rolls deep. I'm not sure exactly what that means, or if I'm using it correctly, but damn, doesn't it just sound good?
Instead of a big celebration at Cracker Barrel, I've giving away THREE copies of the book.
Just leave a comment under the post titled "The Moment Giveaway" on the Flourish in Progress Facebook page, and I'll choose three people randomly next Monday.
THIS GIVEAWAY IS BEING DONE ENTIRELY ON FACEBOOK. COMMENTS ON THIS POST ARE CLOSED.
