Susie Bright asked me for my phone number

How cool is that?

She’s coming to Saint Louis for a romance novel readers convention. I know, how lame is my town? We invite Susie Bright to speak at a convention for romance novel readers. Why don’t we invite Noam Chomsky to judge a Fouth of July bake-off at the VP Fair?

Anyway, I still have her semi-private email address from back in the days when she wasn’t quite as famous and I was still writing for magazines. So I wrote her and told her that, although I’ve been waiting for her to come to Saint Louis for ten years, I can’t see my way to go to a gathering of Fabio-philes. She emails me back an hour later and suggests the possiblity of setting up an alternative event for her real fans while she’s in town and asks me for my phone number.

Even if nothing ever comes of this, it made my fucking day…

  1. You so cool…
    You know all the hip people, David. That’s fantastic. 🙂
    And you should totally go to the RomanceCON…if only for the jokes! 😀

  2. I am sure Mr. Chomsky really knows his baked goods. I mean he seems to know everything else.
    Maybe he could tell a bit about who the US screwed over for each of the ingredients.
