Tell me something about your generosity - the animal you’ve taken in, the fires you fight, a marathon you’ve run for […]
Say something nice about the person who posted right before you. (Okay, it’s more of a command than a question, but try it. Who couldn’t use a compliment?)
Wednesday, the winner of the Neil Gaiman photo-guessing contest will be here. You may remember that the prize for the contest winner was an interview on LitPark. So […]
Rest in peace, Cletus. xoxo

Sunday is my birthday, so today’s question is, What’s your sign, and what’s your age? Come on, be brave.

Wednesday you’ll see something that developed in the comments section a few months ago, when several of you mentioned that you’d lost your parents, and I encouraged those of you who were interested […]
Describe your writing style (if you’re a writer). If you’re an artist, director, reader, or any of my other friends at LitPark, I want to hear about your style, too, even if it’s to hear about your shoe collection!

Wednesday, short-story writer, Elizabeth Crane, will be here, and we’re talking style, among other […]

XO!

My pal James Spring has the enviable […]
What do you know about the annual AWP conference? Have you gone in the past? Are you going this year?
*
Wednesday, we’re hanging with Jeff Lependorf before he leaves for AWP. In my opinion, there is no greater champion of literature and indie presses. So, if you are a poet, a short story writer, a reader […]
Has your writing led to controversy? What was the topic that brought on the firestorm, and was the controversy ultimately helpful or hurtful?
*
Wednesday, Lauren Baratz-Logsted will tell you all about controversy because she’s had plenty - without even trying. I wonder if there will be some controversy surrounding her new YA book about abortion? Hmmm, […]
How has your hair changed throughout your career?

Wednesday, Neil Gaiman will be here, and we’re going through his old photo albums together, so don’t miss it or you’ll miss photos like this one!
Here’s just a partial list of Neil’s books and films:

Where were you in the 80s? And what were you doing?
*
Wednesday, Amy Bryant will be here to talk about POLLY, her book set in the 1980s and featuring a teenager who wears a bracelet made of fish hooks and listens to hardcore punk.
I’ll see you then. But in the meantime, if you’re on MySpace, you […]
