A pleasingly busy week here, as a wide array of pieces continue to fall into place. After much delay, it appears we’ll have a distribution deal for I Love Your Work locked in the next two weeks, in time to announce at Cannes. Posts for The Best Web Writing are piling up, and should be going in front of the editorial panel shortly. And, on my own book, I just passed the forty page mark, with a strong outline in place for the rest of the (likely distressingly long) volume.

With enough work under my belt, I’m likely to sneak out this evening to the first meeting of a Yale alumni group for theater, film, writing and other artistic types. Most of the other invitees have been emailing with amusement about the event, as the organizer blithely named the group the Creative Yale Alumni Network (or, CYAN – sounds familiar, no?). Imitation, I’m trying to assure myself, must be the sincerest form of flattery.
