I’m finally catching up on my reading–sitting on a plane and traveling helps with that–and just got to this article by Bret Anthony Johnson. Love it. Take a look and tell me what you think. Do you agree with him?

Pen on Fire book giveaway
I did an interview with Eliza Cross for her website and we’re giving a book away, so if you know anyone who would like a signed Pen on Fire sent to him/her, have him/her visit Eliza’s site.
I’m leaving tomorrow for a week; we’re taking Travis on vacation to celebrate his high school graduation. I’m trying to decide whether to work on my new project while we’re away–not on computer but longhand, the way I write most first drafts. What do you do when you go on vacation: forget about writing as much as possible, or chip away at a project you’re enjoying?
More on The DeMarcoPolo Show
In Gary Lycan’s OC Register column, he talks about my new show. (Scan down to about the middle.)
A new show: The DeMarcoPolo Show
I’ve been meaning to tell y’all….I’m starting a new show called The DeMarcoPolo show. It’s around the Southland with unexpected discoveries and spicy surprises, like what Marco Polo might find if he arrived in 2012 in Southern California. Well, sort of. We’ll focus on Southern California people and issues concerning those of us who live here. We’ll have authors, musicians, activists, teens….attitudes may be mild or controversial. it’s wide open. The show will air at 5 p.m. PT on KUCI-FM, 88.9. Listen at iTunes college radio, too. Writers on Writing will continue in its usual time slot. If you know someone who would be perfect for the show, let me know. Wish me luck!
