Amazingly enough, I am going on tour to talk about my new book Oh William!
I'm excited to meet and talk with readers and other authors. It has been so long! Please come out and ask me all your questions.
My New Newsletter
It has been a hard pandemic so I'm starting a newsletter.
Every month, readers will receive a newly written personal essay by me. The first newsletter comes out on June 10.
To celebrate, my publisher is giving away a bundle of my books and a bouquet of tulips from 1-800-Flowers to one subscriber who signs up by June 5!
The sweepstakes is open only to US residents (18 and over) but anyway can sign up for the newsletter.

I was invited to select a story from The New Yorker’s archive to read for their Fiction Podcast. I selected “Bravado,” by William Trevor, which appeared in a 2007 issue of the magazine. Fiction Editor Deborah Treisman and I then had a lovely conversation about it and what I love about William Trevor’s writing.
