In my mailbox today and in yours in a few weeks if you'd like a paperback copy of The Necklace with its new snazzy cover. Many thanks to @touchstonebooks for always doing the most. #writersofinstagram #amwriting #amreading #bookmail #summerreading"What have you been up to?" "How's the summer going?" "We haven't seen you much." "How's the new book coming?" "Have you been travelling?"

"Coincidence in fiction makes us feel not that the universe of the story is interestingly predictable, but that it's excessively controlled,heavy,and obvious. In real life we don't expect coincidence and are excited by it because it's unlikely but true." "Coincidence is often what gives fiction its chance to mean something. When two things come together, improbably or not, a spark is struck." Both quotes from Alice Mattison's The Kite and the String, my brilliant professor @benningtonwritingseminars many years ago. I enjoyed both these books. #writersofinstagram #amwriting #amreading #thefemalepersuasion @megwolitzer #anamericanmarriage @tayariWalking through Florence and found this. #TheNecklace #writersofinstagram @newtoncomptoneditoriFavorite place with a favorite author.
