New in Los Angeles

Post by jessicaef »

Hello! I'm a 28-year-old reader/writer in Los Angeles.

Some of the toughest questions in the world contain the words "favorite" and "book/author", but with some things you can't go wrong (Nabakov, Chaim Potok, Judy Blume, Lewis, Didion, Marquez, Amos Oz, Phillip Roth, Hesse, Camus, James Joyce, oh shoot--I'm doing it again...), right?

Seeing live Shakespeare is one of my indulgences, and next year I'm returning to Ashland for the first time in seven years (hooray!). My three year old son shoots off "Billy-the-Shake" one-liners like no one else. I also have a 2 year old daughter.

What else? Check out my web site at jessicaemerson-flemingcom to read excerpts of my first novel, which I just started shopping around. My background is in journalism and playwriting.

Looking forward to this forum!

You spelled Nabokov wrong. Just kidding. Welcome.
