Today the horses are in town, those beautiful beasts that arrive each year and send my thoughts back to childhood days. You'll find me in the stables early, stroking those long, warm noses, breathing a little easier. And over the weekend...
Today the horses are in town, those beautiful beasts that arrive each year and send my thoughts back to childhood days. You'll find me in the stables early, stroking those long, warm noses, breathing a little easier. And over the weekend, running in the Philadelphia Inquirer, you'll find a story about my love of that show and its long and storied history.
Over the course of the summer and into the fall, I'll be traveling a bit, to a number of events, beginning next Thursday when I head up to the BEA to celebrate the naming of Small Damages as the Armchair BEA young adult novel of 2012. A number of other events are brewing, but these are the events I can announce at this time.
Also, in the next few weeks you'll find a brief Kephart essay in Good Housekeeping and an excerpt of Handling the Truth in O Magazine. I'm grateful for the generosity of the editors.
So here I shall be. Perhaps I'll have the privilege of finding you in one of these cities, at one of these times.
