Hope has a new book out, written with her usual brilliant, nail-gun verve; Ben runs an on-going travelling theatrical anthology that’s like nothing else I’ve heard of.  I thank people generous enough to show up on LWON because they get nothing for their efforts but links, which, there they are, please see.  Meanwhile, here’s the conversation about a guy who would have never wanted anybody’s links and probably wouldn’t have said thank you either.
