A little cross-blog action here, as I inform you that the first interview podcast of the year is up over at the
Writers At Cornell blog. It's with W6 friend
Stewart O'Nan, author of many novels, including
Last Night At The Lobster, Snow Angels, Wish You Were Here, and the forthcoming
Emily, Alone. He gave a great reading the other night at Goldwin Smith (interrupted, with just one sentence to go, by a fire alarm); during this interview we talked about his prolificity and work habits, his research acumen, and his adventures chronicling the Red Sox with Stephen King.

This Thursday I'm going to be interviewing one of my favorite writers, Nicholson Baker, and will post the results Thursday evening. Anything you'd like me to ask him? I've already gotten a lot of good suggestions from friends--honestly, I'd happily talk to Baker for an hour if I could.
