Thank you, kevin wilson

Today I'm reading The Family Fang, the fabulous debut novel from Kevin Wilson (Tunneling to the Center of the Earth:  Stories).  Two children, Annie and Buster, grew up at the heels of performance artists and are now as neurotic and unbalanced as you might expect.  (Take note, Marni Kotak.)

I am inspired to write better prose and more interesting circumstances.  While Annie and Buster's lives are contrived by their parents, Wilson's prose is anything but contrived.  Beautifully crafted, this book is forcing me to look beyond writing about ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.

Thanks, Kevin Wilson.  I look forward to reading more from you.
