Here an event, There an event...

Hey, did anyone go to Woodhull dinner seminar with Leslie Morgan Steiner last night while I was out careening at Helaine Olen's book party?! BTW, that book party had the best party food ever--little tea sandwiches with cucumber and yogurt, artichoke crostini, and so forth. Party goers included Jessie Klein (who is writing a fabulous book on gender and school violence), Esther Perel (whose book Mating in Captivity just came out in paper) and my better half, Daphne Uviller (who co-edited Only Child with me). Helaine looked radiant in her little red dress, and it was fun meeting some of the women currently running Mediabistro. I may be teaching an intensive with Mediabistro soon--will blab about it here if I do.

And here's another event some of you might be interested in, here in town:

Deborah & Daphne thanks again for "Only Child." It came in handy yesterday when a woman at work told me that I must have another child. Her adult only is always on her case for being lonely. At least I know there are some somewhat well-adjusted onlies out there. hehe...I told her the title, so hopefully she picks it up for her son.

Aw, thanks for your sweet comment, Veronica! Sounds like that woman needs the book :) And yes, there are well-adjusted (right, Mom?!) oc's out there! All those in our book turned out A-Ok, if you ask me! And with some great material to write about, too, hehe.
